2011 Paul Dolan Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc, Potter Valley, Mendocino, CA, $18 (S) – Rating 88

From organically grown grapes this 100% stainless steel Sauvignon Blanc comes alive with a nose of Meyer lemon creme pie. Crisp flavors are highlighted by kiwi fruit along with Meyer lemon and tropicals. Zippy acidity as you’d expect from stainless steel fermentation with a long Meyer lemon finish. A good value under $20. Buy This Wine
