Shop/wine critic/winery review: A crisp and fruity blend featuring 20% of the
herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc, 50% creamy Loin de l’Oeil and notes of fresh apple
and crisp pear, plus a touch of herb from the 30% Mauzac. It has a bright feel,
with a hint of mineral on the finish.
My review: This wine smell very fruity, citrus, and hints of pear came through on the first small. I tasted it and definitely got the sour green, fresh apple taste that many wines have. This wine was kind of drier than I was expecting. I did not have this wine with any food.
