(flickr.com) My name is Leslie Sbrocco and I’m the host of Check, Please! Bay Area. Each week, I will be sharing my tasting notes about the wine the guests and I drank on set during the taping of the show. I will also share some wine tips with each episode. 2009 Mark West Pinot Noir, California $12 A must-buy bargain bottle that captures Pinot’s elegance and juicy red-berry fruit flavors at a price that will please. Stock up for the holidays to use as a house red or to give as gifts. 2010 Astrolabe “Voyage” Sauvignon Blanc, Marlborough $20 Newly landed on our shores, this unique Kiwi wine delivers a ping of zestiness layered with citrus notes and whisper of fresh herbal aromas. It’s a classy Sauvignon Blanc worth seeking out. 2006 Iron Horse “Classic” Vintage Brut, Green Valley of Russian River Valley, California $34 Iconic bubbly producer Iron Horse is California royalty, crafting world-class wines to rival the best of Champagne, France. Aged for years before release, the Vintage Brut sparkles like a Cartier jewel. Lush, yet lean, focused, and fresh, this is a wine to savor.
