Viu Manent “Secreto” Casablanca Valley Sauvignon Blanc – 2007 – 9.0 – James Meléndez / Jaime Patricio Meléndez

A stunningly gorgeous wine shimmering with a pale straw-gold color this wine gives bold and scintillating acids; abundant tropical notes: pineapple, guava and passionfruit; ground clove, cinnamon and black pepper.  A wonderful find and an outstanding value (Wine Club San Francisco $8.99)

Cono Sur 20 Barrels Casablanca Valley Sauvignon Blanc – 2005 – 8.8 – James Meléndez / Jaime Patricio Meléndez

A very crisp, delicate Sauvignon Blanc with the right amount of acid (I am sure you have had a Sauvgnon Blanc where the acids are too intense); this wine has a plentitude of Granny Smith apple, papaya, mineral, and fleshy Comice pear.

¡Salud!
