($25): Who knew that Freemark Abbey made excellent Sauvignon Blanc?  Of course, they are an iconic producer of Cabernet Sauvignon and some incredibly lush sweet wines.  It’s crisp and laser-like, with a snappy bite that is not aggressive.  Plenty of body and depth balances its knife-like cutting edginess.  It has none of the tropical fruit-like over ripeness that can plaque so many Sauvignon Blanc from Napa.  Try it this summer before it fades with grilled fish, shellfish, or frankly, anything.
