Bodega Rolland Mariflor Sauvignon Blanc - Mendoza, Argentina (2024)
Intensely fruity …” A beautiful, very pale golden colour. Floral aromas of boxwood, characteristic of Sauvignon Blanc, come to the fore. Very intense, with lovely salinity and richness on the palate, culminating in a long and refreshing finish. Ideal with white meat and fish, or simply on its own as an aperitif. – Michel Rolland
