2019 Veramonte Sauvignon Blanc Casablanca Valley Reserva $12 (Sample)
Ultra-pale dried straw color, and with an energetic nose that previews quenching flavors and acidity, this sauvignon blanc is definitely New World in style. The lightweight palate is racy, dancing with light citrus, under-ripe Granny Smith apple, and delicate, but noticeable green pepper. The finish is round, tying the whole package up with a very friendly bow. Given how versatile, easy to find, and wallet-friendly this is, it's easy to recommend this as a midweek quaffer. 88 Points
