Enkidu 2008 Kick Ranch Sauvignon Blanc (Sonoma County)

Country: US / California
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Winery: Enkidu / Kick Ranch

This is a brisk, clean wine, marked by tart acidity that scours the palate and prepares it for food. The followup flavors are of spicy tropical citrus fruits and green, savory gooseberries. The grapes are from a coolish vineyard near Santa Rosa.
