Congrats on the anniversary!

How was the J Christopher? My wife drinks almost only Sauvignon Blancs these days so we're always looking for something new. It's hard to get away from New Zealand.

Very good. We love the NZ SB’s and this is nothing like the citrus & grassy flavor they have but still very good. More minerality, with a very subtle raspberry hint on the nose.

Tried this one tonight, it’s a good wine, but over priced in my opinion. Still enjoyed drinking it, which is what counts. Cheers!

Another great wine from the famous Coonawarra region of South Australia. These wines are always choc-full of varietal character and a rich depth of flavour. Bought two to try and will now go back for a case.

Birthday yesterday with the kids and fiancee, she really went out of her way to get a nice cake. We paired it with a birth year bottle and of course something to match the cake.
