2011 Leese - Fitch Sauvignon Blanc

Yes, the weather is getting warmer here which means time to break out the white vino and give them a try. The menu tonight is an Lettuce Wraps and  Orange Chicken so I thought, let's try the Sauvignon Blanc from Leese - Fitch.  This is produced by the great folks at TOG Wines. I really like what they have been producing, and I'm not alone. Check out their website and see for yourself. They have been receiving all kinds of rewards. And honesty, I'm not surprised.

So when I poured the wine, the first thing you see is how beautiful the color is. In the glass the golden color really catches the light and the aroma is really, really refreshing. A very clean lemon peel and subtle hint of ginger. When you taste the Leese - Fitch Sauvignon Blanc the taste of the citrus expands to include the great refreshing taste of nectarine and citrus zest. The taste is really nice and lasting. A great balance, of fruit.  Looks like TOG has done it again!

This vino is also a great price at about $13.99 a bottle, a GREAT value.  With the warmer days ahead I would pick up a bottle or two. Perfect with salads too.

This vino definitely made THE PIG JUMP OVER THE MOON!
