Drinking the 2013 in 2015. Light, crisp, mild grass and yellow bell pepper. None of the grapefruit/acid notes that you get from New Zealand Sauv Blancs. Fantastic palate cleanser, or with cruditè or fish.

From the #mysterycase. Overwhelmingly vanilla and caramel, a hint of stone fruit 🤔

I adore #loirevalley #sauvignonblanc . Here’s a typically French SB with soft grassy and tart citrus on the nose, hint of tropical fruit in your mouth, refreshing acidity.

Good #wsjwines pick. 2016 Touraine AC, Loire Valley. Famille Bougrier mark but bottled by Les Heritiers Dubois, Saint Romain Sur Cher. Good balance of mineral and fruit, with hints of citrus. Very nice. Seems this vintage is better than years past.
