Winking Owl Sauvignon Blanc Tasting Review

$3 from Aldi. Used as cooking wine. Drank the rest after and felt pretty good but it definitely tastes like cheap wine. At least the price matches.


References:

  • Pale Straw Color

  • No Legs

  • Low Viscosity

  • Hints of apple, lemon, and lime when tasting

  • Hints of green apple, pear, and lemon when smelling (Pages 30-31)



My Review: 6/10
  • Better when chilled

  • Very acidic and dry

  • Tart when chewed/swished almost like rubbing alcohol

  • Eaten with a southwest salad from chick-fil-a which made the spicy flavors from the salad really pop, then ate with buttered toast which made it taste less dry, and the feta cheese which made the feta tastes better since I don't normally like feta
