Shop review: A light, refreshing, balanced sparkling wine with fruit flavors and aromas of citrus, pear and peaches, followed by a nuance of spice. Enjoy this sparkling wine as an aperitif, or with salads and spicy dishes, especially those using citrus fruit. For dessert this wine pairs well with fresh berries or a fruit tart.
My Review: To begin, I am really not a huge fan of Sauvignon Blanc's and this was no exception. It was citrusy and petrol-y in smell. It was dry on the palette, and seemed to have high tannins for a white wine. I got notes of apricot, but was distracted by how sour the wine was. To be fair, I really only got in 1-2 good sniffs and 2 small sips before we went onto the next wine.
I did not have food with this wine.
