Our review: Straw in color, this wine has gooseberry, citrus, and herb aromas with notes of honey. Light-bodied and crisp on the palate, the fruit flavors have the merest hint of sweetness and are accompanied by a brisk minerality. The finish is quite nice, lengthy, with a touch of spice.
Our rating: We're fans of Chilean sauvignon blancs, and this is a fine example. Very versatile, you can confidently pair this wine with a wide variety of foods and cuisines; we served our bottle with stir-fried chicken and vegetables. We rate this moderately priced wine well Above Average.
