NOTES: The Llano Estacado 2004
Sauvignon Blanc is made exclusively from
grapes grown on the Martin's Vineyards
located on the Texas High Plains. At an
altitude of 3,400 feet above sea level,
the Texas High Plains is known for it's
hot summer days and cool nights.
Sauvignon Blanc thrives in this intense
sunshine on the Texas High Plains. As a
result of the cool nights the grapes
retain the acid balance necessary to
produce a balanced wine of intense
character. Our Sauvignon Blanc is crisp,
with nice fruit; yet light bodied and
dry. This wine hints of figs, green
olives, and lemon, balanced in the mouth
with a clean, crisp acidity.
This dry wine complements Oriental
foods, chicken dishes, cold soups or
pasta dishes. It pairs especially well
with Italian herbs and spices such as
oregano, rosemary and anise seed... try
a bottle tonight. |
