This 2009 McKenna North Coast Sauvignon Blanc has aromas of citrus, apple, and tropical fruit with hints of pear and herbs. The flavors are clean and refreshing with a light body. The finish is mouth-watering, food friendly and medium length. Enjoy this wine with grilled zucchini, barbecued shellfish, Chinese take-out or lighter cheeses such as mozzarella.
