Last week I received my Wine Q shipment, in which Marshall included a very interesting white blend as a review sample.

Note: As a disclaimer, I’d like to point out I received this bottle for review from Wine Q. However, I would also like to add that I purchased the same bottle when visiting Twisted Oak back in April, which should relieve any worry you might have about trusting my honesty.
