FREE Tasting of Chile's Carta Vieja Sauvignon Blanc on Thursday August 23rd, 
5pm - 8pm.

When you’re buying wine, it’s easy to fall into a routine of drinking the same thing over and over again. Sometimes you have to look a little harder to find the unique, more delicious choices. Crisp, fruity, and even tropical, Carta Vieja's Chilean Sauvignon Blancs can bring an extra zest that traditional white wines can’t achieve. Mercifully priced at levels that enable all of us to enjoy it.

On the nose Carta Vieja Sauvignon Blanc has those intense tropical aromas you would expect from a New World Sauvignon Blanc with passion fruit dominating, but there are also other classic Southern Hemisphere trademark notes such as subtle hints of fresh green pepper as well as the ever-present fresh lemon and lime scents. There is very small touch of honeydew melon there too, but the acidity here is what makes this a superb food wine and a fantastic match with white fish dishes.

Chilean Sauvignon Blancs such as the Carta Vieja's deserve so much more recognition than they get – these are excellent value wines with refined palates and more often than not come in at under $12 a bottle. 
Fun Fact:
You may not know that cabernet sauvignon — one of the greatest grapes grown throughout the world and the basis for French Bordeaux wines — is the result of a chance meeting between the red cabernet franc grape and the white sauvignon blanc grape. .
