Wine Reviews: Weekly Mini Round-Up For August 12, 20191 min read

in wine mini-reviews

I taste a bunch-o-wine (technical term for more than most people). So each week, I share some of my wine reviews (mostly from samples) and tasting notes in a “mini-review” format.
 
They are meant to be quirky, fun, and (mostly) easily-digestible reviews of (mostly) currently available wines (click here for the skinny on how to read them), and are presented links to help you find them, so that you can try them out for yourself. Cheers!

  • 2018 Dutton-Goldfield Dutton Ranch Shop Block Pinot Blanc (Green Valley): Uhmm…. somebody had better warn Alsace that they have competition… $30 A-
  • 2017 Tongue Dancer Pinot Noir (Sonoma Coast): Save the last of this skillful, vibrant dance for yourself; you’re worth it. $49 A-
  • 2017 Tongue Dancer Pratt Vineyard Chardonnay (Russian River Valley): An intimate tango between sultry richness and masterful, energetic movement. $39 A-
