Wine of the Week: Hogue Cellars Fume Blanc 2005 (WA) $8
Thursday May 24, 2007
The Hogue Cellars Fume Blanc (Sauvignon Blanc grape) is a perfect party white wine. The dominant aroma and flavor of this wine begin with grapefruit and are followed by a bit of melon.
-
This is a medium-bodied with well-balanced acidity and a crisp, vivid finish. Semillon has been blended in at 25% to make for a richer palate. A great white wine to serve with fresh shellfish, appetizers, artichokes and sauteed dishes.
-
Note Hogue cellars uses the screwcap closure to ensure wine's optimum freshness and omit the possibility of cork taint.
