General Information
Leonardo Recanati's Italian heritage lies at the root of his passion for quality winemaking. Grapes for the Sauvignon Blanc are grown in Shomron (Samaria). This coastal plateau enjoys a warm climate and benefits from moderating influences from the Carmel Mountains and Mediterranean Sea. Hand harvested at optimal ripeness, these grapes yield a full-bodied white wine with aromas and flavors redolent of guava, pears and citrus. Fresh hay and bell pepper notes, typical of a fine Sauvignon Blanc, develop and linger in the bouquet. Outstanding paired with fish, sushi, risotto and grilled vegetables.

"Recanati wines are as good or better than any other wines in their price range, and they're kosher. ...clean fruit flavor and crisp finish."

Chronicle-Telegram (OH)
"An appropriate single description of Recanati wines would be balance. All components are in balance, making them enjoyable when served on their own or at the table. Pale straw hue. Clean and elegant scents of ripe melon, citrus and hints of grapefruit. Crisp, long and lingering with brilliant fruit flavors. These are serious wines with complex and rewarding flavor profiles that deserve to grace your table and have a place in your cellar."

A good value for SB, and very unlike the traditional New Zealand "cat pee on a gooseberry bush" SB. Heavy on the minerals, almost a french expression of the variety. Very clean and crisp, goes well with spicy food. Nice acidity as well, typical of the variety.

The very first impression of this bottle is the sweetness, much more pronounced than one would have expected from a Sauvignon Blanc. Maybe it is due to lack of acidity, which makes the wine feel like it's missing the "backbone". That said, it still has strong fruit throughout, and a nice, moderately long finish. Overall, not a bad bottle of wine, especially in light of the price, and is enjoyable, but it could have been better.

Vibrant, clean, crisp and refreshing, this medium-bodied un-oaked Sauvignon Blanc is both intriguing and delicious. The wine exhibits enticing aromas and flavors of ripe melons, citrus fruits, freshly cut grass, and guava, with elegant mineral notes all nicely balanced by a bracing acidity. Drink now.
