Saint-Jean-Des-Graves 2005

A Sauvignon blanc from the Graves region of Bordeaux. Typical straw color for Sauvignon blanc, with grape fruit and maybe a hint of steel on the nose. Relatively mild acidity and very dry on the palate, though I suspect this wine is now old enough that it has lost some of its bite. I'm glad I didn't wait any longer to open this -- a definite drink now kind of wine. Two and a half out of five stars.
