2014 Dry Creek Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, Wine Review 95!!
The usual team of Jimm, Kyle, and Tasho tasted this outstanding Sauvignon Blanc. After vigorously agitating the wine in a decanter for 15 minutes, it offered aromas of salted pear, underripe banana, honeydew melon, and white peach. With more time, additional complexities of white flowers, light spice, and cold butter emerge. The wine has an incredibly agile mouth-feel and energetically delivers white peach, white grapefruit, and refreshing lemon citricity on the palate. This wine would pair perfectly with sticky cheeses (especially goat's cheese), rich foods, and fried seafood (especially calamari). Enjoy this wine's 35+ second finish on warm days on the patio. At just $17.98. Dry Creek over delivers for the price!
