Domaine Bousquet, Sauvignon Blanc 2021, Tupungato, Uco Valley, Mendoza, Argentina
Tasting Note: A sauvignon blanc that retains the grape’s classic herbaceousness paired with ripe, orchard fruit.
Pale-intensity lemon-green in color, this wine has an aromatic, medium-plus-intensity nose of white peach, golden apple and starfruit with hints of freshly-cut grass and lemon zest.
On the palate the dry, medium-plus-bodied sauvignon blanc has medium intensity flavors suggested on the nose supported by medium acidity and completing with a citrusy, medium-plush finish.
A good, straightforward sauvignon blanc that is true to the grape.
