Reviews and Ratings

Joe Hache Prince Edward Count rated this wine as 83/100 with the following review:

Found another of my favorite grapes from one of my favorite countries - crisp and refreshing citrus flavours with a clean finish - Serve chilled with chicken or pork satays or spring rolls
Community Reviewer reviewed this wine as follows:

Caliterra Reserva Sauvignon Blanc is dry, fresh and zesty with creamy, ripe, tropical fruit and lime aromas. It can be served as an apertif, with light meals, salads, Asian cuisine or mediterranean foods.

Through this wine we seek to highlight the terroirs expression, by adapting each vinification technique in order to extract the fruits' maximum potential. This wine is very fresh with an excellent balance of acidity.Mineral notes mingle with aromas of chili peppers, tomato leaf and lime. An intensely aromatic wine with a full flavoured palate.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.
