Black Lion Wine Club - Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir Tasting (The Black Lion): Pale lemon. Clean nose, pronounced aromas of blackcurrant leaf, grass, asparagus, gooseberry, lychee, lemon. Youthful. The palate is dry with high acidity, medium body, medium (+) alcohol, pronounced flavours similar to the nose (green grass dominates), medium (+) finish. Very good quality, drink now whilst it retains its freshness and fruit. Very good value.

Megamoon Part IV: Chile; 10/30/2015-10/31/2015 (Tasting in Santiago and visit to Colchagua Valley): The first 2015 wine that we've had this was the example wine from the very northern part of Chile in the coastal region. As with a lot of the Chilean whites that we tried my first impression was green. Lots of grass, minerals, high acidity, the mid-palette is quite strong in flavor. Could be an interesting food wine I think, but not for sipping on its own.
