Reserve Likuria Sauvignon Blanc Blend 2012
LEFKADIA winery (Krasnodar, Russia)
LIKURIA RESERVE WHITE BLEND (Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Gewürtztraminer)
Vintage 2012
Tasted 13/01/2015
Inspired by previous discoveries of Russian wines, I've moved further and find something very unusual - blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay & Gewürtztraminer. It's NOT maturated in oak as one can guess seeing word "reserve" (pity, of course). What's inside? Sophisticated, elegant, fresh & crisp worthwhile white, pale lemon yellow coloured.
Delicate nose of white plum, kumquat, chrysanthemum and touch of minerality.
On well-balanced and live palate I've noted initial flash of mango and peach, followed by lime, white currant, white raspberry & lychee flavors.
Lovely lingering citrus acidity on finish with minerals back.
Paired finely with baked Karelian river trout and light homemade salad. — 7 years ago
