Shop review: Sauvignon Blanc is the fabled grape of both Bordeaux Blanc and the Loire Valley (Sancerre and Pouilly-Fume). This varietal exhibits aromas of musk melon, pine, and grass. The finish is zesty and citrus-like, and goes very well with chicken and seafood.
My review: Very clean on the nose. You can smell sweetness, honeysuckle, and hints of lemon on the nose. On the mid-palate, the taste of lemon and a delightful blend of citrus come through. Very enjoyable to drink. My favorite tasting of the wines I sampled - purchased a bottle.
I did not have food with this tasting.
