Nov 9th, 2017Today's wine school turned out to be a bit more interesting than expected. I'm not one for Sauvignon Blancs, but I go with the flow.
I have to echo our instructor's description that these are the "slutty summer wines". That's not a bad thing! We all like to have fun and at times it's best not to ask questions and dive in. I enjoyed this bottle. My wife loved it. Hints of green pepper and minerality that mad me nod "okay.... Sure."

Leesy and bitter citrus. Not too green. Floral and ripe.

Jan 9th, 2014Elite Wines. Strikes the perfect balance between weight and freshness. More fruit than some Sancerre, particularly more citrus than expected. At an entry-level price, hard to beat.
