Blasted Church Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc ~Semillon, Skaha Bench, BC
Readers rated this wine:
Fragrant, juicy, zesty.
Blasted Church was established in Okanagan falls 20 years ago. It was named for a mining camp church which was torn down (with the help of explosives) and rehomed to the Falls in 1929. The labels tell many colourful stories.
This classic Bordelais white blend was fermented and aged in a combination of stainless steel vats (70%) and French oak barrels (30%). It's very fragrant and fruity; think gooseberry and peach, honey and green apples, spring flowers and a mix of lime and pomelo. It has a juicy palate and is off-dry and quaffable. It has a creamy edge and a zesty fresh finish.
Pair: shellfish, roast chicken, fresh cheeses or cold noodle salads with some spice.
