I'm drinking some very yummy and complex Stonehenge Sauvignion Blanc. It's very true what they say about not drinking whites too cold. They should be just nearly touching room temperature. After a half our or so all this citrus rind came through the "it's just white wine" taste I get a lot with whites. Then after a few hours in the bottle, melon. Then after an hour in the glass oak just sprung up. I think I'm starting to see the complexity of whites as well.
Having said that, this wine is $5.99 at your local Trader Joe's, so don't expect a mindblowing experience. As for myself, I'm simply exploring the only white varietal that hasn't completely disappointed or bored me yet.
