Dancing Bull Sauvignon Blanc 2005

Dancing Bull* is owned by E&J Gallo Winery, the largest U.S. wine company (2005 figures).  Mass produced, yes, but everything is right about this racy California Sauvignon Blanc.  The wine is more distinctive than you expect, the package sings with its new screw cap, and the price is right.

Dancing Bull Sauvignon Blanc 2005

The composition of Dancing Bull Sauvignon Blanc 2005 is 94+% Sauvignon Blanc, with added Semillon, sourced from Central Coast (about 3/4) and North Coast (about 1/4).

Tasting Notes: Color: Light straw with a slight greenish tint.  Aromas: Starfruit and ripe pear.  Juicy, light-bodied, tart and lively on the tongue, the grapefruit and starfruit flavors are refreshing if not almost "shrill" on the dry finish.

Outstanding value ($8).   Closure: Screw cap.   Alcohol content: 13.2%.

Food Pairing: Home baked thin crust pizza or classic as an apperitif.

*Dancing Bull was previously part of the Rancho Zabaco label, but Gallo has dropped the Zabaco from the Bull label altogether believing it now stands alone.
