Tasting- Sierra Cruz Sauvignon Blanc


Name:  Sierra Cruz
Variety:  Sauvignon Blanc
Region:  Maule Valley
Country:  Chile
Year:  2011
Price:  $6.95
Review:  This Chilean Sauvignon Blanc just oozes with bright citrus flavors and a nose of herbs and grass. Stylistically, it is a cross between the herbal, grassy wines so prevalent in Sonoma County and the riper, more fruit forward products of New Zealand. Match it with pasta sauced with arugula, pine nuts, mushrooms and parmesan.
My Review:  This wine smelled had a good smell of apples, mangos and other fruits.  It had an acidic, lemongrass taste.  It wasn’t very sweet either, considering the smell.  Interesting. 

I tried this wine without food.
