| 2010 St Supery White Blends or Varietals "Virtu" Winery: St Supery Vintage: 2010 Wine Name/Vineyard: "Virtu" Wine Category: White Blends or Varietals Grape blend: 51% Semillon & 49% Sauvignon Blanc Region: Napa Valley State or country: CA Price: $30 Cases produced: 1,817 KWG Score: 89.5 (based on 2 reviews) Ken's Wine Rating: Very Good+ (90) Review date: August 13, 2012 Wine Review: This pale yellow colored white blend opens with a fragrant ripe yellow grapefruit bouquet with a hint of tangerine. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, nicely balanced and has a round mouthfeel. The flavor profile is a slightly tart mild pink grapefruit with hints of honey, vanilla oak and gentle lime. The finish is dry and pleasantly refreshing. This wine is Very Good and would be perfect with many fish meals. I could definitely envision it with grilled trout sautéed in a brown butter sauce. Enjoy – Ken Winemaker Notes: This pale yellow wine is speared by streaks of brilliant youthful green. Bright aromas of lemon zest, guava and pink grapefruit combine with seductive nuances of toasted oak and sur lie maturation. The flavors follow with lemon zest, lychee, guava, grapefruit rind and a subtle creaminess enhanced by the smoky barrel notes. This is a vibrant, textured wine with tremendous flavor. Enjoy! Organic status: not organic Buy it: Use 1000 Corks to find stores that sell St Supery 2010 Virtu.
