Vintage Cellar 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 zezty and citrus-like, and goes very well with chicken and seafood.
My Review: The wine smelled like alcohol, almost like nail polish remover. There was a zesty, lemon initial taste, followed by a slight burn while drinking the wine. The wine seemed light in body. Overall, ok tasting, not a favorite.
