Tasting- Maipe Sauvignon Blanc

Name: Maipe Sauvignon Blanc
Variety: 100% Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Mendoza
Country: Argentina
Year: 2012
Price: $13

Winery review: Filled with notes of honeyed grapefruit, honeydew melon, and figs, it is a light to medium-bodied, fresh, lively Sauvignon Blanc that has significantly more character than one would expect in a $13 wine.

My review: This wine had a bit of a grassy lemon nose. The overall taste was of green apple. It had a light body. The lack of complexity was somewhat disappointing, but it is, as the review says, a $13 wine. 

I tried this wine without food.
