Carmen Sauvignon Blanc 2005

Valle del Curicó, Region del Valle Central, ChilePicked four times to blend slightly under ripe, to medium, regular and over ripe grapes to give this wine a lively grapefruit rind, mineral, green melon and grassy, gooseberry nose. Dry, round, elegant palate with more grapefruit rind and mineral, grassy, melon rind flavours. Easy drinking, lighter style for most meals. Good value.Tasted: 10 March 2006Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
