Casa Silva – Cool Coast Sauvignon Blanc – 2015 (Willow Park)

Share

This has all that I love about new world wine styling.  This wine is very fruit forward and blasts you with a little more heat than the others at about 13.5% alcohol.  Because of the fruit and alcohol, I had trouble getting to some of the more complex notes but there is some terroir showing up on the back palate.  A fun wine that would be great with shellfish in particular!

Tasting Notes: Loaded with fruit: lime, grapefruit, pineapple and passionfruit. Distinct minerality on the nose that reminds of the nearby ocean sea salt. Crisp acidity and medium finish.
