Scores

The 2013 EQ Coastal Sauvignon Blanc has to be one of the finest Sauvignons I tasted from Chile. The 2013 was a cool vintage in Casablanca, and produced a wine that has fresh, marine and herbal aromas, all of them in a subtle, elegant way. It is both fresh and ripe, with a light to medium-bodied palate showing very good acidity, compact with clean, delineated flavors (the archetypal gooseberries) and good underlying minerality making it very supple and tasty. Somehow this wine seems more complete and nuanced than most other Sauvignons I tasted. I?d love to see how it ages, as the balance promises a bright future. Great! I could hardly believe the price ? what a bargain! Drink now-2018. Score: 93 points Luis Gutierrez

Tasting Notes

Bright, lemon coloured Sauvignon Blanc with a complex nose of gooseberries, peach, grapefruit and lemon. The palate is dominated by citrus notes of grapefruit and lemon. The cooling sea breeze that passes through the Valle Hermoso vineyard provides slow ripening that enhances this fruit character and also offers some desirable herbal notes that dance on the palate. This wine contains all the forward fruit expected from a Chilean Sauvignon Blanc, it is perfectly balanced with mouth-watering acidity, an herbaceous quality from the coastal breeze and refreshing minerality.
