Wine of the Month

Santa Alicia Reserva Sauvignon Blanc 2007, Chile - R170
This wine displays intense aromas of grapefruit, melon and gooseberry. On the palate the wine is crisp and refreshing displaying extraordinary balance. Low yield vineyards result in intensely flavoured grapes leading to citrus flavours from tropical fruits such as pineapple and kiwi.
