Storm Wines

Santa Ynez Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2021

This bottle is wonderful. Grapefruit everywhere, wet grass, salty seashore/shells, opens with more tropical flavors coming forward with the grapefruit. A perfect warm day wine. — 2 years ago

Spottswoode

Napa County Sonoma County Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Concentrated stone fruit, grapefruit, guava, with tinges of passion fruit backed by grass and herb notes. Crisp, classic sauvignon blanc texture, though less racy than its European counterparts, but showcases the potential of aromatic New World whites. Very nicely balanced finish. — 4 months ago

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

This white wine has prominent notes of apple and pear on the nose, with hints of green apple and lemon grass to the taste. This white wine is not very acidic, and I enjoy that it is not too dry. — 8 months ago

Oyster Bay

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Classic NZ label. Smells funky. Lawn just cut or a piece of fresh grass in the teeth. And lemon citrus peels. Flavors are complex and very audacious. Bombastic even. Plenty of citrus, but something else as well. Shells? Like the calcium carbonate in those. Also big gooseberries. This is a good example of how NZ Sauv Blanc differs from the other styles out there. This wine packs a punch. — 6 months ago

Alphonse Mellot

La Moussière Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Blast of freshly mown grass… lime zest, wet stone, and lively acidity. Perfect quaff for quick tropical beach getaway.., shaking my head at all the high end cab being consumed on a warm evening in Anguilla on the beach. This wine reminds me how versatile Loire whites are. Perfect balance if not served too cold. — 2 years ago
