| | Tasted by DanielleRose on 11/26/2014 & rated 93 points: I'm a big fan of Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc (of any vintage, really!). They are always refreshing and crisp, with just the right acidity and fruit (apricot and grapefruit being the most prominent). Great for their cost, too! (5098 views) |
