  Nice succulant wine, fresh combined with some honey notes.

  Noem het een kelderexperiment of een vergeten fles. De hamvraag is natuurlijk of deze CB het kan hebben. In de neus zou ik bijna Riesling denken, zacht tropisch, peer en ananas. In de mond lijkt het zoet dominanter geworden. Niet onaangenaam. Bijzonder om te merken hoe deze wijn zich toch nog weet te ontwikkelen. Wel over de top van frisheid heen.

  Consistently a solid buy (the red, too) in the $12 range. Nose of honeyed white tea, apricots, sea salt and almonds. Nutty and honeyed meets brisk and zesty on the palate with juicy apricot, peaches and orange. Underlying seashell, candle wax, honeyed tea. In my opinion, one of the best widely-available dry white wines in the U.S. in the $10-$12 range.

  Label reads 13% ABV. Sauvignon blanc nose. Creamy lemon and lowish acid on the palate. Sweet finish.
  
  I used to think this punched above its weight, but either my tastes have changed or this isn't an impressive vintage.
