($32): I’ve had so many excellent vintages of Merry Edwards’ Sauvignon Blanc that I should no longer be surprised.  But I am because I still associate her with stellar Pinot Noir and only few producers anywhere in the world show their talents with both grapes.  She now numbers among them.  It delivers an elegant balance of a creamy lanolin texture combined with the pleasant pungency you’d expect from Sauvignon Blanc.  What is unexpected is the sophistication and class of this wine.  As much as I like her Sauvignon, she could ditch the heavy bottle.
