Served at a dinner party so I had to wait 25 minutes for it to warm up a bit from the frosty refrigerator temperature. This was served with the salad. Had the salad not been served, I would not have had the wine. I wish the salad wasn't served. New world profile that lacks any real depth of fruit or varietal typicity. Most likely micro acidified, perhaps watered and chaptalized, too. A pleasant tartness persisted throughout the glass, keeping this from the dreaded 70s score. So many more choices at $15. Drink now.

PnP. Clear, very straw yellow/green tint. Nice proper nose. A good CA SB. Big fruit, great balance, super value, nothing off.

Vacca Tasting Night - 2nd Wine of SB Flight. Most enjoyed this wine. 3 out 4 preferred this to the 08 WHitehaven.

Very nice bottle, citrus and green apple. Not sweet, what I think of when I drink Sauvignon Blanc. Loved it.
