Didn't make a detailed note of this. Had a hard time getting to Sauvignon Blanc, definitely need more experience with high quality Loire Sauvignon to improve this. Very mineral, flowers, lemon, high acid. This would be good with an elegant fish dish.

Bring a Nice Bottle (The Kenwood, Mpls, MN): Pale straw color. Drank a glass over an hour plus. Same bottle as Bellissimo and others. I think his note speaks volumes when he says "world class", yes, absolutely. Love the nose with chamomile, lychee, white flowers, mandarin orange, and lemon. The palate shows the chamomile also, with flint and dry stone minerality that drives the ship, tart, expressive citrus notes of mandarin orange and lemon, lychee and gooseberry. Lean, driven and really good.

Amazing, great start to dinner. Fresh citrus well balanced! Not a huge sauv blanc fan but this was great.

Brought to a large group dinner. Followed one glass over 30 minutes or so. Especially liked this when it got a little warmer (guessing 50F or so).
Chamomile, lime, lychee, white flowers with strong mineral backbone. Racy acids. This was fantastic!

Luis' Group (Kenwood): If you don't like Sauvignon blanc, try this. Crazy mineral, almost funky, with tea leaves and a touch of lime.
