Wine Tasting - Insomnia Sauvignon Blanc

Name: Insomnia Sauvignon Blanc
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Region: California
Country: USA
Year: 2013
Price: $10
Outside Reviews: 
"Pale. Intense floral aroma, matched in flavor but with slight bitterness mid-palate—that was a surprise. And soap as the wine opened up again where it was initially bitter—yet another surprise!"
 -The Frugal Wine Snob
My Review:
This wine definitely wins the coolest label award! The patent-pending face label opens and closes its eyes depending on how you look at it. As for the wine, it is very light and crisp, and appears to be a bright yellow-green color. It smells citrusy and fruity, and it tastes pleasantly sweet and acidic. The aftertaste is very smooth, mellow, and balanced. I ate pasta with this wine, and that made it taste very sweet. I'm excited to try the other Insomnia wines.
