This week features our interview with David Eakle of Pope Valley Winery out of Napa Valley.   Wines featured in this episode - these wines were sent to us as samples.  2018 Sauvignon Blanc - a really wonderful representation of a warmer style SB with lots of stonefruit and tropical aromas and flavors, and is also a refined and delicate wine - so a great pairing with light seafood dishes.  2016 Sangiovese - great crowd pleader wine. This is your pizza pairing wine. Sangiovese is the grape of Chianti, and although this wine is not a Chianti, it tastes like it would pair with similar foods. We enjoyed it best when it was decanted for about an hour.  2016 Petit Verdot - This is a very intense, bold and savory wine with a lot of complex flavors and aromas going on.
