Pleasant Chardonnay
Fresh tropical fruits like pineapple, mango and green apple greet both the nose and palate upon first sip, followed up by a touch of lemon cream. Complimented by more creamy notes of butterscotch and caramel, the wine has a long, lingering finish hinting of toasty oak. Wine.com

Kim Crawford 2006 Sauvignon Blanc 7.5
Explosive burst of grapefruit, peach and mango. Went very well with food, might be too dry for rooftop sipping. Good mineral flavors and tannins. Lots of depth.
Concentrated and complex, with vivid passion fruit, grapefruit and tangy peach flavors. Vibrant minerality and tangy lime juice acidity keep thumping through the finish. 92 WS

Matua Valley 2006 Sauvignon Blanc 6
Tart and crisp with grapefruit flavors. Cut through creamy food. Might get a little overwhelming on its own for a while.
WS 89- Serves up ripeness, vibrancy and very good concentration, with flavors of grapefruit, gooseberry, mineral and grass. Tart lime peel notes linger.
