  This wine will rock your summer, cutting through D.C.'s humidity with razor-sharp acidity and a fresh burst of flavor.  I love the clean, crisp sensation this wine leaves behind. 
  Sauvignon blanc is a versatile grape that can come in many different styles… I’ve even heard “cat pee” used as a descriptor from the smell of some Sauv Blancs.  2008 Flora Springs Soliloquy Vineyard SB is one of the best white wines I’ve ever had.  Aromatically it is a mix of lemon grass, orange blossom, and subtle citrus.  It’s acidic and racy.  It’s wonderfully refreshing.  Being from Oakville, a region within Napa, it will cost between $20 and $25.  If you need a bottle to impress any wine-savvy guests or hosts, this is it.  This is a good pairing with sharp cheeses, salads, and shellfish, but just a nicely chilled bottle of this wine is a perfect remedy for summer heat.  A defininite A for this wine.
