Wine Review | 2007 Old Hands Yecla Sauvignon Blanc by Bodegas La Purisima

2007 Old Hands Yecla Sauvignon Blanc by Bodegas La Purisima ($9.99)

The high, cool elevation in southeastern Spain where the grapes for this dry white are grown accounts for its fresh, floral notes as well as its low-alcohol finish.

The wine is refreshing yet still serious enough to accompany a wide range of foods, from olives to hummus to roast chicken.

It is in stock at Weiland's.
