2010 Barons de Rothschild (Lafite) Los Vascos Sauvignon Blanc Casablanca Valley. That’s quite a mouthful! With that many words in a name it better be good right? And it is.
The 2010 Los Vascos Sauvignon Blanc starts with aromas of tropical fruit, peach, and a little goosberry. The wine tastes of tropical fruit, peach, orange zest, and pineapple, with a small amount of vegetal notes as well. This wine has good minerality. The finish is a little on the tangy side and the flavors linger nicely. A nice, easy to drink wine.
