Viña Santa Monica 2002 Sauvignon Blanc (Rapel Valley)

Country: Chile /
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc Rapel Valley
Winery: Viña Santa Monica /

Varietally typical aromas of grapefruit and green onion start it off, but the palate is more citrusy, as it emphasizes flavors of orange, grapefruit, passion fruit and some pickle. The finish is fresh and clean, and the mouthfeel is juicy. However, dilution of flavors and a failure to improve once opened hold it back.
