Finca Sophenia Synthesis Sauvignon Blanc 2009
Gualtallary, Tupungato, Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaBig grassy, nettle, fresh nose of sauvignon with flecks of grapefruit and lemongrass. Delicate palate with slightly more intensity than the regular but still lacks a bit of mid-palate intensity and extract. A good start and a likely promising future if they can get the viticulture right. Look for lime and grapefruit flavours in the finish. Estate grown at 4000 feet.Tasted: 17 November 2010Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:BC | $18.00 | 750ml | estimated retail |
