2001 Snoqualmie Chenin Blanc

[wondersofwine]

I ordered a glass of this at P.F. Chang Chinese restaurant in West Des Moines while visiting my sister. I didn't take notes at the time but it was fruity and soft and yet enough crispness to carry the assortment of Chinese dishes we shared (lettuce wrap, sweet and sour pork, Mu Shu Pork, honey-glazed chicken, spicy mango chicken, etc.).
I already felt Snoqualmie winemaker was hitting her game, and this confirms that.
P.S. This was my first visit to a P. F. Chang restaurant (they have one in Charlotte) and I thought the food was very good but the place was very noisy. It was packed on a Monday evening. They arrange the wine list by tasting categories like soft to more intense and full-bodied, mild to more bold and tannic, which may be very helpful to new wine drinkers.

Sorry, but PF is on my blacklist! They increased my 15% tip to 20% and told me that it was a Visa requirement. There were four of us, so it wasnt one of things where they have an automatic addon. But if it were, I usually see only an 18% automatic tip for large parties. Nope, PF just changed the amount and then blamed Visa. Only when Visa spoke to them did they change it back. They would not change it for me. Guess they didnt suspect that I would check my credit card bill.

That's pretty sorry - I'd be filing complaints with the police department for defrauding a client, with the BBB, and with WW's cousin Guido...

Oh, and BTW, I thought the wine is mediocre...
