Tasting - Maipe Sauvignon Blanc

Name: Maipe Sauvignon Blanc
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2011
Price: $7.95
Review: Yellow color with green hints. Expressive wine, fresh, very aromatic. This Sauvignon Blanc displays grapefruit flavors, with hints of melon and honey. It finishes with bracing acidity and fresh mouth feels that make it a terrific aperitif and an excellent accompaniment to virtually all seafood, especially shellfish.

My Review: I thought it was definitely a lot more bitter than the previous white I tasted (the Vinho Verde). I didn't taste any distinctive flavors.

Food? I did not taste this with food.
