Decided to take on the challenge of providing tasting notes from wines on airplanes and airport lounges. Tasted in the JAL lounge in Seoul Korea. Not bad at all. American Airlines can learn something here in how to select a very reasonably priced wine with character. The nose provides grass and wet stones. Flavors of lemon and minerals with a background of grapefruit. Medium body. Really nice acidity. All in all a decent SB. Would be quite enjoyable on the back deck during the summer. Definitely worth buying in the $13-15 range.

BarBao NYC - nice grassy nose with just a hint of bell pepper. Lots of lemon, mineral and saline elements on the palate. Great ripping acidity. A solid Loire SB.

Nice grassy nose. Also a saline quality on the nose and palate. Actually, this is much better then I expected. Not a fruit bomb, it retains the character of the Loire. Pretty tasty. 87-88
