One of the world's great Sauvignon Blancs- at an everyday price!! Allan Scott's 2021 Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc is only $17.98 "Strikes a terrific balance between mouthwatering acidity, fresh herbal notes of lemon verbena and thyme, and core flavors of Key lime, Meyer lemon, pineapple and tangerine. Gains momentum on the finish, where the flavors sing in harmony and complexity." Wine Spectator, 93 points
The Allan Scott name is synonymous with the Marlborough region of New Zealand, which is itself synonymous with great "new world" New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc doesn't get much better than this at any price- and the 2021 Allan Scott may be the best vintage yet. This wine has everything that makes New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc wildly popular- yet it remains astonishingly affordable! Our only warning is a by now familiar one for the times in which we live: supply is highly unreliable. We may well run out fairly soon pending another shipment from New Zealand- so please don't delay. This mouthwatering white is more than worth the modest price, and at only $17.98, you can afford to stock up! |

Finca Luna Beberide Mencia 2018: This 95-point Mencia is an Instant Classic! "(Shows) purity, intensity and stored energy...tastes of game fresh from the hunt, astonishingly red, sunny, savory and spicy. The fruit recalls dark sour cherries and rose petals, with a beautiful bitterness that feels directly tied to the slate in the soil. Exciting to drink, especially with grilled game sausages." -Wine & Spirits: 95 points "The aromatic, floral, elegant and subtle 2018 Finca Luna Beberide was love at first sight. From its bright purple color denoting youth to its intoxicating nose and the purity like no other vintage before, it really captivated me. It was produced with Mencía from 60-year-old vines in Villafranca del Bierzo and has unprecedented finesse and elegance. The palate is juicy, fresh and refined, but with energy and light, very clean and focused. This is drop-dead gorgeous. One to buy by the case at this price!" - Wine Advocate: 92 points

Sauvignon Blanc. Winery owner Allan Scott has worked every harvest since 1973, since long before founding the eponymous Scott Family Winery in 1990 with his wife Catherine. Allan planted some of the region’s first and most famous vineyards, and the critics have been impressed ever since; Allan's 2020 Sauvignon Blanc was selected as Wine Spectator's #23 wine of 2020, and the 2021 version is rated even higher. In rating the wine 93 points, Wine Spectator noted its "terrific balance"...harmony and complexity", and in rating the wine 92 points, Wilfred Wong, the éminence grise of Wine.com, said it "excels with aromas and flavors of savory spices and tart citrus."
