A Best Buy |
| The CuvÈe Saint Flavy has earned a loyal following for far more than just its price point. You can expect to find suggestions of bread, biscuits, white fruit, citrus and a pure minerality. This is invariably crisp, impressively complex and balanced. Julian Hitner of winealign.com awarded it a rating of 90 points in Oct. 2012, calling it \"Generous, crisp, and inviting\" and suggesting a four-year drinking window. You can expect similar quality from this bottling of this consistent performer. |
