Doña Paula Los Cardos Sauvignon Blanc 2008
Tupungato, Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaThis 100 percent sauvignon comes from the high altitude Tupungato area of Mendoza's Uco Valley. Look for green hues in this otherwise pale white wine. The nose is an herbal leafy mix of gooseberry and grapefruit. On the palate the same them continues with more gooseberry nectarine skin and passion fruit flavours. Stark fresh and food friendly. This wine is getting better each harvest.Tasted: 08 August 2009Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $14.00 | 750ml | speculative listing - Mark Anthony Brands |
