2019 Z. Alexander Brown Uncaged Sauvignon Blanc

2019 Z. Alexander Brown Uncaged Sauvignon Blanc

#01-2022

Don't tell the Chardonnay Queen that I said this, but I usually prefer Sauvignon Blanc to Chardonnay, for most dinner fare.  Recently, we paired this offering from the North Coast of California with a Shrimp and Bay Scallop Casserole featuring Orzo, and it was a real hit!  Good effort from the leader of the Zac Brown Band!

This is a big fruit Sauvignon Blanc, with tropical aromas in its nose, and a strong dose of lemon and lime in its flavor spectrum, also a hint of honeysuckle and orange to complement its melon tendencies.  It finishes clean and crisp, and the alcohol content is 14.5%. Norm's score is 89.

I would pair this wine with a host of foods, including Chicken Piccata and Eggplant Parmesan.

score: 89
price: $15 - $20
