Tasting: Casas del Bosque Sauvignon Blanc



Name - Casas del Bosque Sauvignon Blanc 
Variety - Sauvignon Blanc
Region - Casablanca Valley 
Country - Chile
Year - 2012
Price - $12.95

Wine Review - This Sauvignon Blanc has energetic, precise lemon and pear qualities, with floral, herbal and mineral accents adding complexity.  The wine scored 90 points under Steven Tanzer's review. 

Personal Review - The wine definitely had a strong citrus flavor.  To me, a grape fruit taste stood out.  It was a decent wine because the citrus and grapefruit tastes did not overpower the wine.  I liked that it was more sweeter than it was tart.  I liked it and would have it again, but I would not necessarily purchase it. 

Food - I did not try this wine with food, so I am unsure how it would pair.
