Name: Santa Luz
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Valle Central
Country: Chile
Year: 2013
Price: Normally 11 dollars
The Winery Review: Like any good Sauvignon Blanc, this opens with oceanic aromas of citrus fruits, sea foam and minerality, it is juicy and stony, with washing acidity. Flavors of honeydew, lime and a nice grassiness finish firm, with good backbone. Drink this with salads, shellfish and ceviche.
My Review: This week wine tasting will not be as descriptive or as well done because when I was at the wine tasting the person who was pouring my wine was not pouring that much. Normally at the wine tasting I get enough for three ok sips to be able to better judge the wine. The person who was pouring my wine didn't even give enough for 1 ok sip and I tried my best to make it work, because I did not know if it would be considered rude to ask the person to pour more especially if the tasting is free. I also learned this week that sweet is a smell not a taste so I will be trying my best for the rest of the blogs to not use sweet as a description of smell. The Santa Luz smelled of fruity and especially grape. It tasted dry but smooth. I would give this one a 6 out of 10. Again sorry for the shorter blog.
