Well, it's been 365 days and today we taste our 365th wine ... it's been a tough job but someone had to do it ... and we end the saga with another Sauvignon Blanc ... from Chile. It's been a year since we started and one of the first we tasted was a Sauv from Chile ... and I only thought it fitting we end on the same hi note we started with! Cheers ...
