Wednesday Night Blind - March 2010 (Peter Pratt's Inn): Tasted blind - Pouring the wine, my first thought was Semillion, based solely on the light color. First whiff though and it absolutely screamed Sauvignon Blanc, with huge robust notes of fresh cut grass and grapefruit. Very acidic, a nice mouthfeel, I went back to this later and was thoroughly impressed how it held together and put weight on. Delicious wine and what a fun way to trick people at a blind tasting, A for the effort Mark!

(Biblia Chora Ovilos O, Pangeon, Macedonia) This blend of 50% Assyrtiko and 50% Sémillon, crafted by partners Vassilis Tsaktsarlis and Evangelos Gerovassiliou, has a complex nose of sea spray, pine, chalk, Meyer lemon, quince paste, dried pineapple, dried apricot, pistachio, and sage. On the palate, it is medium-boided and creamy, with underlying notes of pine, lemon, and apple; bright acidity; and subtle, seamlessly integrated oak tannins. Very distinguished. Hot Picks
