Casa Grand Selection Rapel Valley Sauvignon Blanc

Nice spice, thin mid palate

Not as good as I remembered, a little too bubbly.

Blended with 1% Sauvignon Gris and 1% Semillon blanc for roundness (note the 2013 vintage had 8% Semillon). Pale yellow wine with aromas of citrus and white flesh fruit. On the palate pear, peach and orange flavors with earthy tones on a balanced structure with lively acidity. The finish was pleasant and lingered about medium in length. Great value. Tasting Sample.

Typical carmenere. Good for practicing blind tasting. Herbaceous, cassis, heavy extraction. Under $15.

15/20 (86/100)

Чисто, свежо, элегантно, фруктово, без малейших овощных оттенков. Не сложно, аккуратно.

Drinking way beyond its price range... Lovely balance between acidity, creamy texture, citrus, touch of floral and some minerality. 2013 vintage.

floral, apples, honeydew and a hint of mace?

A bit much on the green side.

Flavours of lemon and citrus....notes of petrol. Okay table wine, nothing special
