TGIF! I hope the weather will be beautiful where you live this weekend, too. I'm looking forward to relaxing with a glass of wine after work today, perhaps even on the patio!
Keith's sister is coming over for dinner and we're making this pasta. Can't wait! That brings me to this week's wine selection. It's a very good Sauvignon Blanc, which is a sweeter white wine. I gave a bottle of this to friend at work that is somewhat of a Sauvignon connoisseur, and he really liked it, so that says a lot!
Root: 1 - Sauvignon Blanc
Year: 2009
Origin: Casablanca Valley, Chile
Average price: $11
Wine Maker Notes: The long growing season of the Casablanca Valley allows for the Sauvignon Blanc grape to develop natural sugars that balance its characteristic acidity. Root: 1 Sauvignon Blanc is noted for its intense flavor and fresh citrus style and is an exceptionally versatile food wine that pairs perfectly with chicken Caesar salad, grilled fish, seafood and creamy pasta sauces.
PS- Can you tell yet that I only buy wines with attractive labels or design!? :)

I'm glad I'm not the only one who picks wine with a pretty label. I've loved every single bottles design so far. I'm not a huge wineo, but with bottles this pretty and names like cupcake...I'm starting a list of ones I must try! Thanks for the new hobby!
Mmmm I loove the label. Good pick!
I always choose by label :)
I too choose by the label. It's the best way to go. :)
Haha, I'm the same way! Looks yummy -- enjoy your weeekend!!
This is my favorite SB! I just discovered it and it is my new fav.
