Tasting-- Arona Sauvignon Blanc


Name: Arona
Variety: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Marlborough
Country: New Zealand
Year: 2012
Price: $12.95

Winery review: "Zesty ripe passion fruit and melon make this a true pleasure. Lovers of fruit-forward Sauvignon Blanc will revel in its fresh texture and subtle hint of grassiness."

My review: A very interesting white. The color was quite pale and the nose was a very loud grassy, peach, melon scent. It tasted of melon, passion fruit, and cat piss. The cat piss component of this wine was rather grassy. A very flavorful wine, it's intense taste lingers for a few seconds.
