EAST COAST PALATE

So my dad now is a member of the WSJWine Discovery Club, which has great deals on wines and provides some interesting, educational literature about wine and everything that comes with the territory.  The best part about this club is the price for a case.  The one my dad just ordered cost $70, which, sans shipping, comes to just under six bucks a bottle.  Fantastic value that provides quality wines and a lot of info to back them up.  Check this out further at www.wsjwine.com.

This 2009 Sauvignon Blanc from Esk Valley is herbacious and delicious.  There are aromas ranging from lemon peel and starfruit to grassy fields and green peas.  The nose is fresh and vibrant, then that first sip goes down clean like water for a second before the tart zest emerges, bringing a nice structure to this wine.  I enjoy the unique, but not overly vegetative smell, as well.  This is a crisp, refreshing B+ bottle.  I'm wondering if there are other places around D.C. and MD to find it.  Google, here I come.
For all those that take time to enjoy white wines, what are your thoughts on wines that smell slightly like canned green peas?  Is that something immediately off-putting, or does the stink intrigue you like it does me?  Share your thoughts.
