Tasting- Obikwa Sauvignon Blanc



Name: Obikwa
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: Stellenbosch
Country: South Africa
Year: 2010
Price: $7.95

Wine Critic Review: "OBiKWA Sauvignon Blanc is the ideal summer wine and smacks of crisp tropical fruit with a smattering of gooseberries and fig. If you're planning a night out with mates - don't forget to bring along a bottle of this yummy potion!"

My Review: The smell of this Sauvignon Blanc smelled like citrus fruits, with lemon being predominate here. Also, I smelled pears, apples, and gave off a sour aroma on the nose. This wine tasted very tart immediately with some citrus fruits on the tongue. The taste of the wine was not long lasting and the there was no aftertaste on the tongue. Overall, this light bodied wine was decent but I was expecting something more from this white wine.

This wine was not tried with food.
