Tasting - " Coldstream Hills Sauvignon Blanc"

Name: Coldstream Hills Sauvignon Blanc
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc 100%
Region: Yarra Valley
Country: Australia
Year: 2009
Price: $7.95

Vintage Cellar Review: The nose shows fragrant gooseberry characters with unerlying passion-fruit and lychee aromas. Minerally, stalky notes are evident and provide additional complexity. The palate is a fine and elegant style with zesty lemon acidity and length. Varietal characters of passion-fruit pulp and gooseberry dominate with hints of lemon peel in the background.

My Review: I smelled a distinct apple smell with is wine and tasted some alcohol again. I had no other words to describe the after taste of this wine but bland, it left nothing behind which is something I didn't like much. I don't want the wine taste to disappear as soon as I swallow.
