Tasting - La Lejania Sauvignon Blanc

Name: La Lejania Sauvignon Blanc 
Region/Country: Central Valley, Chile
Year: 2015
Price: $10-- Sale $6.95

Winery Review: A light, refreshing, balanced sparkling wine with fruit flavors and aromas of citrus, pear and peaches, followed by a nuance of spice. Enjoy this sparkling wine as an aperitif, or with salads and spicy dishes, especially those using citrus fruit. For dessert this wine pairs well with fresh berries or a fruit tart.

My Review: The citrusy smell, perhaps a hint of orange was obvious as soon as I gave it a good sniff! It was fairly smooth in texture, not too dry and the fruity taste made it drinkable without having to squint eyes when swallowing. Various types of fruity flavor balance out the tannin and make it an easy wine to drink. I would give this wine an 87. I tasted this on its own with no food.
