Wine Tasting

 


Barefoot On Tap Savignon Blanc, variety: Savignon Blanc, California, 15.99 $

Review: "California - Barefoot Sauvignon Blanc features crisp notes of refreshing honeydew melon, sweet nectarine and juicy peaches in an convenient box wine. Finished with a delicious hint of zesty lime and pear." (https://www.totalwine.com/wine/white-wine/sauvignon-blanc/barefoot-on-tap-sauvignon-blanc/p/228092031) 

Wine Folly: Savignon Blanc is 1 of 90 common varieties in the Unites States. (pg. 284, chart)

Personal review: I had never had Barefoot Savignon Blanc and it might be my favorite yet. Unlike others, I really did not get any apple scents or tastes at all. Like the Total Wine review says, I was getting a lot of melon, but it was very light and subtle. It also did not taste very acidic or bitter like some of Savignon Blancs do sometimes. It was super refreshing and the opposite of heavy.
