Oak Leaf Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc

Tonight I picked up a bottle of Oak Leaf Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc at Walmart for $2.97. Ha. Pretty cheapo wine, so I wasn't expecting much. It doesn't even have an explanation on the back of the bottle! So all I really know about it is that it is vinted and bottled in California.

We were having pizza for dinner, and I honestly didn't know (and still don't know!) what kind of wine you match with pizza. I wasn't in the mood for a red wine, so I grabbed this one because it was on sale. It has a very acidic, grassy smell...which set me off a bit. But I was pleasantly surprised by the taste. It was crisp, sweet and citrisy, with a very short and mild finish. Maybe I just am attuned to liking cheap wine. lol. But I enjoyed it. I figure if I can buy something I enjoy for $2.97 a bottle, why not!
