  September 5, 2009 - Exactly what I expect Sauvignon Blanc to be: crisp, clean and refreshing.

  January 18, 2009 - Sunday at home with grilled salmon. Interesting - almost slightly sweet. Firm, good body for a SB.

  November 27, 2008 - Thanksgiving wine. I didn't try it, but Nikkii and others enjoyed it very much. Only drank one of the two bottles - so will have a chance to try on another occasion.

  May 4, 2008 - BBQ at Rob's Wendy YF and baby -- Quite interesting and unique for a domestic SB, leaning more toward smooth funky and viscous like Sancerre rather than explosive tropical fruit and pungent gooseberry. Nice wine, but it got pushed aside when a Fevre '02 Valmur hit the tale, whoooahhh.

  June 2, 2007 - Drink Local/Eat Local -- California Artisanal Food and Wine: Very nice, varietally-correct sauv. blanc, grapefruit, not too much grassiness. Wonder why you'd buy this for $10 more than a good one from NZ? Maybe because it's a fund-raiser for a good cause.
