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

.I sample a bunch-o-wine (technical term for greater than many people). So each week, I share some of my wine testimonials (primarily from samples) and sampling details in a "mini-review" style. They are actually meant to become unusual, exciting, and (mostly) easily-digestible assessments of (typically) presently readily available white wines (click on this link for the skinny on how to read them), so you can solve to the point and determine if they're for you (or not). Cheers!
