Thursday, July 23rd, 2009 | Food Pairings, Wine Tasting Notes, new zealand wines | 1 Comment
One of MANY Sauvignon Blancs out there on the market… just wanted to quickly share my notes…
Brancott Sauvignon Blanc 2007 (SnoothRank: 0/5)
Marlborough (July 2009)
A crisp, peppery white, with notes of green bell pepper, citrus (lemon / lime) even some young tart grapefruit. A tad acidic, so much more lovely when paired with a light meal. Finish was long and it held up to other earthy flavors, such as portabello mushrooms. I paired it with Artichoke stuffed raviolis that were topped with a beure blanc sauce, portabello and fresh spring peas. Added some thyme which brought out some grassy aromas on the wine itself. The wine is rather dry, so food will soften the palatte. Enjoy! myRating: 3/5
