Community Tasting Note

Saturday, March 19, 2011 - Saturday night in the O.C. (Chez GlennK): Possibly the best dry white still wine I have tasted. Bright, fresh notes of gooseberry, white grapefruit, and lemon, with crisp flinty minerality. Somebody, take this bottle away from me before I empty it. Reminds me of the 2009 Merry Edwards Sauvignon Blanc, or a top quality Sancerre, or even a Muscadet. This is what California fume blancs wish they could be, but aren't ... although Merry Edwards comes close. But ... $100 for a sauvignon blanc? I dunno... This tied for first place as wine of the night.
