Mission Briefing
Generation of You
Today’s Passaggio Wines 2013 New Generation Sauvignon Blanc is a real delight! This wine is silky smooth, aromatic and just loaded with freshness.
Absent from this wine is the brashness and one-dimensionality sometimes associated with the varietal. What you’ll find here is a bright and vibrant wine that exudes fresh aromas of pineapple, mixed citrus, lime leaf, lemongrass and the slightest hint of fresh fennel frond. Silky and plump on entry, with flavors of Meyer Lemon, lemon curd, lemon grass, lime flower, pineapple, guava and very subtle white pepper.
This delicious wine is also a fantastic value. Our $15.99 price makes this a best buy - and a wine to stock up on. We’ll be keeping some of this very food friendly wine on hand for the coming Fall holidays.
Cheers!
