Tasting: Les Petits Roucas Sauvignon Blanc



Name - Les Petits Roucas Sauvignon Blanc
Variety - Sauvignon Blanc
Region - Vin de Pays
Country - France
Year - 2013
Price - $10.99

Wine Review -  Mellow aromas of fresh cut citrus and green melon with just a hint of grass. Then big and fruity flavors of melon, apple and lime course across your palate with bright acids and juicy freshness.  Round and easy in the middle for effortless sipping but then clean and zippy at the end.

Personal Review - I really enjoyed this wine!  It was herbal but not completely overpowering.  I think I liked it so much because it was fresh and on the lighter side.  I tasted more of a lemon citrus than a lime or melon citrus.

Food - The wine tasting at the Gourmet Pantry did not offer food; however the man conducting the tasting said it would pair well with healthier foods such as grilled chicken, fish or salad.
