  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

  almost water colour with delicate fizz. Nose: peach and gooseberry. very delicate and balanced, some herbs, peach and a little bit bitter mandarin aftertase - very fresh - good. Had that with grilled salmon with orange vinegar sauce and wild rice - good match. I like it.
