Maxville Lake Winery 'Maxville' Sauvignon Blanc 2016 Review
The alcohol is very high for this grape and the result is a wine that has balance, but the heat of the wine takes away from the subtleties of aromas and complexity. It’s fine for gifting a host when the wine is just going to be placed on a table with several other bottles, or to have at a party that’s not about the wine.
