Friday, May 14, 2010 - 2009 Veramonte Sauvignon Blanc Reserva
•The Stuff: 100% Sauv Blanc from Casablanca Valley; 13.5% abv
•The Swirl: Very pale yellow straw color
•The Sniff: Citrus and minerality on the nose with mild effervescence
•The Sip: Citrus, Kiwi, Lime, minerality and moderately tart. The acidity is slightly off balanced but the wine remains a nice crisp drinker.
•The Score: At $11, this is a fantastic deal and definitely a wine to consider for seafood, spicy dishes, and poolside sipping. I can score this a 3+ out of 5
