I thought Hotwine had posted on this but couldn't find it.
Pale straw color. Citrus and apple scents. Full flavored with grapefruit and green apple flavors with a looooong finish. 75% Chardonnay and 25% Pinot Noir. 12% Alc/vol. A delicious Methode Champenoise for $12

Nope, that's one that I missed. Sounds very nice.

Found it, it was Botafogo and Bucko.

I'm innocent -- I was under the influence -- I did not have relations with that bottle.

It's hard to believe that Monica turned 28 this week. Seems like only yesterday that she was crawling around the White House on her hands and knees.....

Popped the Blancs de Noir tonight. Beautiful mousse, medium to small bubbles. Richly flavored with a long finish. Very nice for $13. Paired with Maryland Crab Cakes, salad and sauteed mixed veggies with garlic. A match made in Maryland.

Took the advice of many on this board and had a bottle of this stuff (the blend) on the Cape, along with a beach and a sunset and little crab sushi. Lovely. Thanks again, guys.

Thanks, Hotsie. First out loud laugh I've had all day!
