Cut Grass -
Aromas and Flavors of Wine

Cut Grass is one of those aromas that most of us can identify easily. We smell it often in the summer, as people mow their yards. It's a fresh, vegetable sort of aroma.

The Wines with Cut Grass Flavor

Sauvignon Blanc is traditionally the wine associated with a cut grass aroma. Sauvignon Blancs from New Zealand can have an incredibly powerful, grassy aroma that you can smell from a few inches away! Semillon also has a grassy aspect to it.
