We tried a fab, affordable white at Jadis this week -- Henry Brochard "Les Carisannes" Sauvignon Blanc 2006 from Loire. Light and crisp, it has a nice passion fruit aroma to it. Very summery. Would be great with a light, ladylike lunch of salad, bread and cheese. Or maybe with a Brazilian fish mouqeca and rice. Yum.
My friend Francis said it tasted like Umbungo, a fruit drink popular in England in the 80s. I couldn't tell if he thought that was a good thing or not.
