Doña Paula Los Cardos Sauvignon Blanc 2010

Tupungato, Valle de Uco, Tunuyán, Central Region, Mendoza, ArgentinaMarlborough or Mendoza? It is priced like Mendoza but tastes like New Zealand. The fruit is from Finca Los Cerezos, Tupungato. Viticulturalist Eddy Del Popolo employs a 'spring' pruning technique to successfully delay the growing season one month and shifting the ripening time into cooler weather. Look for bright yellow grapefruit, intense gooseberry and light mineral, bell pepper aromas. Fresh juicy entry with nettle, lime, gooseberry fruit and just a squeeze of citrus and asparagus. Grilled chicken anyone. White wine for wine drinkers.Tasted: 30 January 2011Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
