| 75 | | | 89 | JaneGarvey | Atlanta | Georgia | USA | Medium-bodied sweet white wine; medium pale yellow. Delicate but complex clean aromas of candied citrus peel and exotic spice (a suggestion of ginger) and a slight spearmint note. Sweet citrus-tinged fruits on the palate, with a clean, long, fruit-focused finish. Lemon drop joins gentle grapefruit notes throughout. Could use a little more acidity. Not as viscous as a Sauternes, but that's not a flaw as this is what it is. In fact, the lighter body may appeal to many consumers who don't care for rich sweet wines. Grape: Sauvignon Blanc. The wine shows the grape's versatility to perfection. Serve moderately chilled, around 50-55ºF in tulip-shaped white wine glasses. Lovely value. Serve in tulip-shaped white wine glasses at about 50ºF (10ºC).
Suggested Food Pairings:
Seafood-stuffed "Beggars purses" with curry sauce from Eurasia Bistro in Decatur; similar slightly spicy Asian fare with chicken or seafood; wine can handle medium but not excessive heat; creamy blue cheeses; pears stuffed with creamy bleu cheese; lemon crème cookies (ooooooooh!); plain cheesecake; simple cookie; biscoti with lemon, lemon squares, mousse of foie gras.
