Tasting - La Lejania Sauvignon Blanc

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

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 pars well with fresh berries or a fruit tart.

My Review: A wine with a light, golden, almost clear color. Had strong aromas of pears and a hint of apples. A light body with a smooth and refreshing taste that lingers on the palate. There was a very dry, slightly spicy taste in the mid-palate which makes me think that this is a higher tannin wine. I think this is a wine that would definitely pair well with a cool, fruit dessert because of its freshness and is also one that I would like to have again. This was tasted by itself, without food.
