Winery Review
A crisp and fruity blend featuring 20% of the herbaceous Sauvignon Blanc, 50% creamy Loin de l’Oeil and notes of fresh apple and crisp pear, plus a touch of herb from the 30% Mauzac. It has a bright feel, with a hint of mineral on the finish.
This wine had a very strong apple nose. It was immediate and deliberate when the crispness of the apple hit right off the beginning and finishes with light hints of citrus and another tree fruit. While this wine smelled great its taste was overly sour for my liking and was very hot on the alcohol side.
I did not eat food with this wine.
