Wine Club 18: Cupcake Sauvignon Blanc, Gabbiano Pinot Grigio

Date: August 7th, 2012
Host: Christine
Bonus bottle: Bota Box... yum!


Cupcake Sauvignon Blanc 2011 (New Zealand) 13% alcohol, $8

Andrea says (16): Smelled of lemon with some floral notes. The taste was sweet and a little tart, apple, and peach. I would definitely drink this again.


Gabbiano Pinot Grigio 2010 (Italy) 12.5% alcohol, $10.50

Andrea says (13.5): This wine started out a little stinky, smelling of feet and hair salon. After it had time to breathe, I smelled more floral. The taste was apple pie and honey.


Bota Box RedVolution N/V (California) $20 (6 bottles)

Andrea says (17): I really enjoyed this Bota Box. Very high quality for a boxed wine, and what a value! At $20 for a box that holds 6 bottles, it's a great deal!

Kris Pinot Grigio 2010. 12.5% alcohol, $11.99

Andrea says (17.5): Smelled of pear and lemon. Tasted like honey and apple. Definitely a good one. I'd drink this again.

Root 1 Sauvignon Blanc 2010. 13% alcohol, $10.99

Andrea says (13): Smelled kind of bad, sulfur, feet and salon chemicals. Tasted a little like apple. Certainly not one of my favorites.
