Le Vieux Pin Sauvignon Blanc 2008

Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaPassion fruit, melon, gooseberry, grapefruit, nettle, floral, canned asparagus aromas. Round, fresh, juicy but somewhat austere palate. Lemon, nettle, passion fruit, grassy, grapefruit rind, butter, lees and jalapeno flavours. Finish is long but a bit austere and tart with a hard edge and some green notes. Good solid expression but best with grilled fish.Tasted: 18 January 2010Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
