2009 Charmed Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley JAQK Cellars


Wine sample number three sent to me by the fine folks at JAQK Cellars was the awesome 2009 Sauvignon Blanc "Charmed". Refreshing, crisp and lively was everything I wanted on this hot day in a refreshing glass of wine.

In the glass you really get the bouquet of citrus hitting your nose. Lemon with a touch of lime, some subtle hints of grapefruit, a nice cream/vanilla aroma were all so pleasing.

Absolutely love the citrus flavors in the mouth. The lemon/lime is excellent from start to finish. The hint of grapefruit gives the wine just enough "tart" and is not overpowering which I really like. Faint oak at the end really ends the taste nicely. Wonderful balanced wine which I drank without food although I was cooking dinner and the wine ran out before the cooking was done :)

Check out their website JAQK Cellars to learn more about this new wine company making some very tasty juice.

Cheers
Dan
