2018 Delille Chaleur Blanc, Columbia Valley
Margot's. Great nose with a delightful hint of lillikoi (passion fruit) in addition to the usual suspects and superb acidity. A great vintage for an iconic Washington white.

2017 Bevan Cellars Sauvignon Blanc Dry Stack Bennett Valley
Best bottle of this six-pack so far, others have been shy. This one's perfectly in the zone (finally!) for current drinking. This is an exquisite Sauv Blanc that's kind of uniquely its own--doesn't resemble SB's from anywhere else, and yet it couldn't be anything else other than SB. Bevan makes SB from several different vineyards (or at least, they did, currently this might be the only one). This shows white melon, asparagus and fresh hay.
My wine shopping and I have never had a problem. Just a perpetual race between the bankruptcy court and Hell.--Rogov

Agree, the Delille Chaleur Blanc is very consistently outstanding.
