Wine Assessments: Mini Round-Up for September 16, 2024

.I try a bunch-o-wine (technical phrase for more than lots of people). So each week, I share some of my red or white wine customer reviews (mostly coming from examples) as well as sampling details in a "mini-review" style. They are indicated to become eccentric, enjoyable, and also (typically) easily-digestible testimonials of (primarily) currently accessible white wines (visit here for the skinny on just how to review them), therefore you can get right to the point and also decide if they're for you (or not). Cheers!
