Holy Grapefruit Batman!

February 9, 2007
Last night we opened the last bottle from my most recent quest for everyday wine at the Curious Grape. This was a 2006 Steenberg Sauvignon Blanc. I picked it up for $10.99, it's 12.5% alcohol by volume and had a real cork closure.

My kind of Sauvignon Blanc! Big ol' grapefruit and nothing much else, but that's okay with me. I love the crisp citrus flavors of this style of Sauvignon Blanc. The grapefruit was all over the nose and in the mouth of this wine.

I served this with ham, cheese and pineapple omlettes last night. It was actually a really good match. Although this wine was fairly simple, it was a great and inexpensive everyday wine and I'd definitely get it again.
