So each week, I discuss a few of my white wine testimonials (mainly coming from samples) and also tasting details in a "mini-review" format. They are indicated to be quirky, enjoyable, as well as (typically) easily-digestible assessments of (mainly) presently readily available white wines (click on this link for the skinny on exactly how to read them), thus you may get right relevant and also make a decision if they're for you (or not).
