Citrus, Orange, Peach
After reviewing Toro Bravos smash hit red our expectations were running high. Swing and a miss here. The citrus aromas and flavours were nice but I was put off by the very tart finish. The Sauvignon Blanc was really changed by the addition of Verdejo (vurr-day-ho), a grape primarily grown in Spain.

Lemon, Lime, Honeydew, Floral
The label suggested seafood. I tried it and disagree.
Light body, dry, bland finish when cold but I noticed that as it warmed in the glass the lemon and lime ratcheted up and gave a puckering sourness on the palate.
Pink Grapefruit, Lychee, Honey, Floral
Appetizers, Salads
Right in the middle of dry and slightly sweet, this white blend has always been a readily available crowd pleaser for me. Non-wine drinkers have taken a photos of the bottle on my counter to remember it next time they’re out shopping for wine.
Medium body with mouthwatering acidity. As it warms in your glass you will get big notes of honey. Goes down easy. Real easy. Maybe a little too easy.
Citrus, Green Apple, Floral
Charcuterie, Rissoto, Roasted Potatoes
It’s a nice little wine, fresh with slight acid making it a bit tart in a good way. The citrus (mostly lemon) is pretty apparent right away. The floral scents showed up once the wine warmed up a bit.
For the same price point, I’d recommend our recent 5-star discovery from Portugal
It’s a solid table wine which I would definitely cook with. Remember, don’t cook with wine you don’t like. Cooking only intensifies the things you don’t like about the wine.
