La Playa 2008 Block Selection Reserve Sauvignon Blanc (Limarí Valley)

Country: Chile / Block Selection Reserve
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc Limarí Valley
Winery: La Playa /

This is a perfectly good and honest wine, with aromas of fresh lettuce yet not a whole lot of vivid fruit. So in that sense, it is like many SBs from cool-climate Limarí. But if the nose is shy, the palate offers nice, cheerful apple and melon flavors. Smooth enough and almost round, withno edgy acidity or overt zap.
