A terrific deal in Mendocino Sauvignon Blanc, subdued in the nose at first, this wine opens up into easy-drinking vanilla and lemon flavors, its stainless-steel fermentation keeping it refreshing and light and a go-to aperitif; its depth keeps it fresh and bright over time. An ideal SB to go with a light dinner. ——V.B.(11/1/2011)—— 88
