Tasting - Smoking Loon Sauvignon Blanc

Name: Smoking Loon
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2009
Price: $7.95
Winery Review: "This bleached blonde beauty is reminiscent of fresh green apples, pineapples, and has hints of hibiscus blossoms. The concentration of zesty lemon and gooseberry fills your mouth leaving notes of thyme and melon behind. The bright acid in this wine gives you a zing while the fruit keeps your mouth watering for more. This wine pairs beautifully with a grilled prawn salad with a grapefruit vinaigrette, veggie spring rolls or grilled tilapia with mango salsa."
My Review: I thought this was a very different wine. It was very light and fresh with a lot of zesty and interesting flavors that spoke their own parts. I enjoyed the different fruit accents and the aroma of the wine was wonderful. I would definitely buy this wine in the future.
This wine was not paired with food
