Region: Ontario
Country: Canada
Year: NV
Price: N/A
Shop Review:
This medium-bodied and expressive wine presents bold herbal tones and fresh citrus flavours. Straw in colour with a refreshing grassy nose, it delights with a long and fruity finish.
My Review:
This Sauvignon Blanc is a home made wine from a kit. Hal Bell (my dad) made this wine from a kit found here, and followed the instructions in the kit. It is an un-oaked wine with grapes imported to Ontario. I was excited for this wine, as the last Sauvignon Blanc I had was delicious. The aromas in this wine were nothing like any wine I have ever had. It reminded me of waking up in the morning to a freshly baked alcoholic cinnamon raisin bread. My parents looked at me funny, but that's exactly what I smelled. The wine was a little bubbly, which added a crispness that I didn't mind. On the pallet, this wine had a little spice, and a citricy grassy taste. I tried this wine with a home made chicken Thai soup. This kicked the spice up a little and made the wine very enjoyable. I really liked this wine, and will be asking my dad for any extra bottles and when he'll be making it again.
