Wine Assessments: Mini Round-Up for August 12, 2024

.I taste a bunch-o-wine (technological condition for much more than lots of people). So each week, I share a few of my a glass of wine testimonials (mostly coming from samples) as well as sampling notes in a "mini-review" format. They are suggested to become eccentric, enjoyable, as well as (mainly) easily-digestible evaluations of (mostly) currently offered white wines (visit here for the skinny on how to read all of them), thus you can easily get right relevant and also determine if they're for you (or otherwise). Thanks!
