Wine Assessments: Mini Round-Up for August 19, 2024

.I taste a bunch-o-wine (technical term for more than many people). So weekly, I share several of my white wine testimonials (mostly coming from samples) and tasting notes in a "mini-review" layout. They are actually indicated to be eccentric, exciting, as well as (primarily) easily-digestible assessments of (typically) currently available red or white wines (go here for the skinny on exactly how to read them), therefore you can solve to the point and determine if they're for you (or not). Cheers!
