2015 Allamand Saint Jeannet, Argentina, Mendoza, Wine Review

Vintage:

2015

Score:

Grade:

Saint Jeannet is a rare white wine grape. This is one of the few bottlings that use it. Light golden in color. The nose has limes, asparagus and a metallic quality. The palate is a bit better and more about minerals. A bit of citrus. Decent acidity. Nice enough finish. This retails for around $10 and for that price, this is good value.

Score:

Grade:

Under $15. This is solid. Ruby/purple in color. The nose has cherries and a slight herbal note. On the palate, tart cherries. Easy drinking. Not a ton of acidity. Nice finish.
