CUPCAKE VINEYARDS SAUVIGNON BLANC 2012 – $11.99
Winemaker’s Notes: “Sourced from the South Island of New Zealand, the Sauvignon Blanc exhibits complexity and a vibrant zing. Flavors of Meyer lemons and Key limes integrate wiht hints of grapefruit, gooseberry and citrus, culminating in a long, creamy finish.”
Serve chilled with oysters on a half shell or with a rich, creamy lobster risotto.
Kim Notes: “Like a Summer’s Eve douche, it left me feeling clean, light, and refreshed.”
To be honest with you, I know very little about Sauvignon Blanc other than it’s made from white grapes and has the appearance of a well hydrated person’s urine. But I know many of you love it and you’re probably sick of reading my Chardonnay reviews.
When asking around about Sauvignon Blanc, I was told that it’s a great daytime wine- so I had it for breakfast with my eggs and One A Day vitamin. And guess what? I quite enjoyed it!
I immediately detected notes of grapefruit, pear, apricot, and lemongrass. It was like a fruit bowl in my mouth! *I can’t say I detected the winemaker’s gooseberry, but that’s probably because I have no clue what gooseberry is.
The winemaker said it pairs well with risotto so I plan on trying it with my Maple & Brown Sugar oatmeal tomorrow. Who knows, it might start replacing my coffee.
