Francois Lurton Les Fumées Blanches Sauvignon Blanc Vin Orange 2021
FranceIt's about as lively as it gets for an orange, and that is saying something since I usually pour eight out of ten defective samples down the sink. It has that sauvignon acidity to help with the extra weight and flavours, although this wine is perfectly balanced. It has a citrus thread with nuttiness and a bitter orange peel finish. It is a curiosity, but it is a wine worth trying and experiencing with spicy dishes, sweet and sour Asian dishes, firm older cheese, and even turkey.Tasted: 10 October 2023Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:BC | $24.99 | 750ml | select private retailers |
