On Friday I got the ingredients for a great little Greek meal. However, due to multiple unforeseen circumstances, I wasn't able to actually put it together and enjoy it until today. Since Pris and I didn't have a bottle open I put her to selecting the wine while I got everything put together in the kitchen. We had a nice meal of chicken with Greek spices and sides. To go with it, Pris selected Nobilo's 2009 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc.
The Nobilo is a great refreshing white wine, perfect for our warm summer afternoons here in the Valley. It has a light fruit nose with lots of citrus. The citrus continues on the palate, though with a slightly so sweet undertones. The Nobilo is well balanced on the palate, and leaves a lingering light finish This Sauvignon Blanc is crisp, flavorful, and exceptionally refreshing.We paired the wine with a Greek salad, Greek grilled chicken, tzatziki, flat bread and olives. The wine paired incredibly with the food. Its light citrus flavor complemented the grilled chicken and olives perfectly.
We picked up the Nobilo at H.E.B. and it runs about $12 a bottle. You can find out more about Nobilo's Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc at http://nobilo.co.nz/index.html
