PLANNING for SUMMER: Consider getting a little stash for summer drinking. A super-refresher from a cool climate.
THE ORIGINAL SAUVIGNON BLANC
The Sauvignon grape originated in the Loire Valley of France where the wines express the cool climate and the French fondness for “˜understated’ wines. Taste this Sauvignon and you’ll feel the sharpness of a good aperitif and the suggestion of an appetizer. (But too light for a main course). A very different experience from the “˜party mood’ of most of todays popular Sauvignons. I love the fresh, frankness of this wine ““ there’s not a trace of make-up or prettiness.
