Wine Review: This pale straw-colored Sauvignon Blanc from Merry Edwards opens with a ripe honeydew melon and lime bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced and bright. The flavor profile is a tasty Bosc pear and honeydew melon blend with notes of almond and kiwi. I also detected a hint of grapefruit. The finish was nice and pleasant. This Sauvignon Blanc was enjoyed by all that tried it. I would pair this impressive wine with Emeril's crab cakes. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: This lively wine with a golden-green hue sports an aromatic nose of tangerine, guava, honeydew, and cantaloupe melons along with notes of white blossoms and marzipan. On the palate, sweet oak is balanced by crisp acidity, with a juicy finish featuring a splash of zesty grapefruit. Our Sauvignon Blanc is always a brilliant match with seafood. We suggest our recipe for Asian-style Pan-Fried Black Sea Bass with Sauvignon Blanc-simmered leeks and shiitake mushrooms.
