On the palate, the wine begins with a fruit-sweet attack quickly followed by notes of baking spices, blood orange and berries and finishes with notes of bittersweet chocolate and black cherry framed by fine-grained tannins. This wine has perfect acid balance and the notions of forest fruit linger for minutes on the palate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Twomey Cellars by Silver Oak Sauvignon Blanc from California ($28.99)<\/strong> &#8211; Twomey Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc has a light straw-yellow color and a dynamic nose of honeydew melon, citrus blossoms, white jonquil, guava, custard apple and pie crust. It has beautiful acid balance, great mouthfeel without heaviness and a long clean finish redolent of lime zest and mascarpone.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Two more wines to taste all evening!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/chateaulavin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Tasting-10-11-12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-821\" title=\"Tasting 10-11-12\" src=\"http:\/\/chateaulavin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Tasting-10-11-12-224x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"224\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/chateaulavin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Tasting-10-11-12-224x300.jpg 224w, https:\/\/chateaulavin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Tasting-10-11-12-764x1024.jpg 764w, https:\/\/chateaulavin.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/10\/Tasting-10-11-12.jpg 1936w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 224px) 100vw, 224px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sketch Book Cabernet Sauvignon from California ($23.99) &#8211; <\/strong>This full-bodied dry red wine displays a dark scarlet color and a youthful, complex aroma of ripe, sweet cherries imbued with hints of cassis and cedar. It&#8217;s warm, expansive cherry and blackcurrant flavors are well-structured and extend into a long, fruitful finish enriched by toasty oak tones. This superb wine should age nicely in the bottle for up to ten years.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cosecha Tardia Late Harvest Chardonnay from Argentina\u00a0 ($12.99) &#8211;\u00a0 <\/strong>Harvested late in the season, the Cosecha Tardia (or Late Harvest) is bright golden yellow in color. Aromas of flowers and peaches on the nose give way to a palate with pleasant acidity and balanced tannins.
