If citric, fruity, and honeydew melon flavors with a touch
of lemon glass is what you are looking for you might want to check out Sterling
Vintner’s Collection of Sauvignon Blanc. At the total discount price of $9.00 a
bottle you would be surprised by the vividness of the taste. Certainly not the overwhelming impressive
bottles you might find in more expensive brands but this is not their market.
I wasn’t in the market for white wine but the scruffy
kickboxing coach offered me a free bottle- who is to argue? At a total cost of
$0 to me I thought it would be worth a try. Pleasantly, I was surprised that it
was appealing and full of flavor. Certainly I can envision the use of such a
wine for hosting larger events and social gatherings. It may also work well for
a general table wine.
Sauvignon Blanc originally started in the 17th century
in the Gironde area of southwest of France. Austria, New Zealand and California
have adopted the wines for commercial development. Vines that produce the wine are vigorous and
upright in its growth with small bunches of berries with hard skins.
Such wines are often offered as a desert wine. Generally their temperature is around 45
degrees F which amounts to around 20 minutes in an ice bucket. White wines should be served with white meat
which includes seafood, chicken and pork. Dishes with leafy greens also work as
well with this type of wine.
The Sterling Vineyards are located in Napa Valley. They have
tours for around $25 per person and include a leisure tour, five wine tasting
choices, and a Sterling glass. Visitors can take the tram up to the winery
while having a panoramic view of the area. It is a one of the kind tour for the
area. The winery is designed after the Greek island of Mykonos.
