Review - La Lejania Sauvignon Blanc

Name: La Lejania Sauvignon Blanc
Variety: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Central Valley, Chile
Country: Chile
Year: 2015
Price: $10.00

Wine Shop Review: A light, refreshing, balanced sparkling wine with fruit flavors and aromas of citrus, pear and peaches, followed by a nuance of spice.  Enjoy this sparkling wine as an aperitif, or with salads and spicy dishes, especially those using citrus fruit. For dessert this wine pairs well with fresh berries or a fruit tart.

Personal Review: The La Lejania Sauvignon Blanc was light in color and had a flowery, pleasant aroma to it. Swirling and aerating the wine caused these floral aromas to be intensified. The Sauvignon Blanc was not complex in flavor. My initial impression of the wine led me to pick up strong citrus flavors and these did not change as I swished the wine around in my mouth. I did not notice a significant flavor change during the mid palate or the finish.

Note: I did not consume this wine with food.
