Cono Sur Sauvignon Blanc 2011 (about $13)



About the Wine:  Cono Sur is a sort rising of star in the organic wine world.  The bicycle represents the preferred method of transport between different parts of the vineyard.

About THIS Wine:  It is clear in the glass, very light for a Sauvignon Blanc.  Orange and grapefruit make up a rather pleasant nose.  Sharp acidity defines the palate, though on the second sip a detected a variety of citrus flavors.  Those flavors really shine in the finish.

Drinking This Wine:  Too acidic for a sipping wine, this would go well with shellfish or a light chicken and rice dish.

Overall Impression:  Not a bad wine at all and the price is reasonable.  This one is good for the price.
