"Having some folks over this evening from 7-9 for a very casual Snooth Sauvignon Blanc tasting.

No schedule folks can come and go as they please. 3 bonus bottles will also be opened, cab, pino and a white blend, just for fun.

If you are interested in coming just let me know.

Thanks

Greg

vigna uva vino reviewed Pieropan Soave Classico 2002. (3.5/5)
On Jun 2

Pieropan Soave Classico 2002

Starting at $19.50 Snoothrank: 3.5/5

Blue ruby colors paint this with INTENSE wood aromas, sour cherries, chocolate, black cherries cough syrup, unique, pruny and velvety... with a kick... 16% alcohol! I loved this wine
