Sam B's: Six Varietals (Bowling Green, OH): Grassy lime nose. Lightly effervescent, grassy, creamy, lime. Bigger body than a typical NZ SB, but definitely not for non-fans of the style. $20ish

At Hotel Du Vin, Cambridge. Half bottle - with tuna carpaccio starter. Very few by the glass of half bottle options on the list - so went for this. Typical SB aromas with intense goosberry and nettle - but not particularly ripe. Medium bodied and fresh on the palate, very primary, simple and ultimately boring flavours on the mid-palate, shortish finish. Drinkable but distinctly dull and unmemorable - something to drink on a girl's night out (my wife's line not mine!).
