Tasting- Santa Luz Sauvignon Blanc



Name: Santa Luz Sauvignon Blanc

Variety: Sauvignon Blanc

Region: Valle Central

Country: Chile

Year: 2013

Price: Regular $11 Sale $6.95
       
Shop/wine critic/winery review: Like any good Sauvignon Blanc, this opens with oceanic aromas of citrus fruits, sea foam and minerality. In the mouth, it is juicy and stony, with washing acidity. Flavors of honeydew, lime and a nice grassiness finish firm, with good backbone. Drink this with salads, shellfish and ceviche.


My review: This wine was the first one we tasted at the tasting and it was very tart, somewhat sour.  This is probably from the citrus flavors that could be tasted but I was unsure which fruits.  I did not have any food paired with this wine.
