Tasting Notes
Yarden Sauvignon Blanc features complex aromas of guava, gooseberry, lime, fig leaf and lemongrass, rounded out by a hint of spice. This flavorful wine exhibits medium body and a long finish. A small percentage of the wine fermented in French oak barrels, adding some body and complexity. Ready to enjoy now, Yarden Sauvignon Blanc is best consumed within a couple years of harvest. Try serving the wine with pan-seared grouper fillets, roasted chicken with caper sauce, or goat cheese ravioli with lemon pesto.
