Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Our Project Paso Sauvignon Blanc has classic varietal aromas of lemon and grass, with hints of honey and lime from a small percentage of Semillon. A white grape often blended with Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon lends extra complexity and a hint of richness to the mouthfeel. On the palate, flavors of Meyer lemon marmalade come together with the citrus zing of key lime and grapefruit, mellowed by green apple notes in the background. Great structure and length come from the integrated acidity of this wine, and the transition from sweet fruit to zippy finish is fresh and crowd-pleasing.
Food Pairing Notes
Pair this Paso Robles Sauvignon Blanc with summer salads and soft cheeses, such as a tuna nicoise salad or a goat cheese, watermelon, and greens salad with a citrus vinaigrette. Zesty goat cheese spread on a crust of fresh bread would also make a great match with the bright flavors of this Central Coast wine.
