Santa Rita Sauvignon Blanc Reserva 2006

Valle de Casablanca, Region de Aconcagua, ChileThe screw capped finished version of the '06 reserva sauvignon is a touch more intense and seems to magnify the bell pepper and lemon aspects. The style is crisp and tight with plenty of grassy gooseberry fruit. Intense fruit flavours coat your palate mixing bell pepper, gooseberry dried herbs and lemony grapefruit. There's no malolactic fermentation and two month lees contact makes for a creamy, passion fruit finish. Bring on the shellfish, again.Tasted: 27 May 2007Tasted by: Prices:
