The aroma opens with fresh ripe pineapple, sweet honeydew, pear, vanilla, and crisp citrus notes of lemon and lime zest. The flavor has lush mouthfilling fruit with nice tartness. A hint of wood, which adds texture is followed by a long rich finish. From the spicy cuisine of Southeast Asia, to the rustic seafood dishes from the south of France, Sauvignon Blanc has a unique versatility, which allows for spontaneity and creativity in the culinary arena.
