Two Oceans 2010 Sauvignon Blanc<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Varietal: Sauvignon Blanc
\nCountry: South Africa
\nProducer: Two Oceans
\nAlcohol : 11.71 \u00a0% vol
\nAppellation : Coastal
\nCost: $9.95<\/p>\n

Winemaker\u2019s Notes:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Colour: Brilliant light green tint<\/p>\n

Bouquet: Upfront tropical fruit flavours, gooseberries followed with a hint of green fig<\/p>\n

Taste: An elegant, crisp wine displaying ripe gooseberry flavours on the fore palate backed by tropical fruit and a hint of grassiness that lingers long on the aftertaste.<\/p>\n

M<\/strong>y Review:<\/strong><\/p>\n

This wine boasts an intense nose exuding floral, tropical fruits and vegetal aromas; is a medium-bodied, elegantly crisp wine with lively acidity which reveals a lingering finish<\/p>\n

Pairing:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Two Oceans 2010 Sauvignon Blanc lives in the best of both worlds, it can accompany shellfish and it also fits well with light meats such as pork, lamb and veal; it also matches well with salads, light cheeses, or as a summer patio wine.<\/p>\n
