Our Tasting Team Thought

The Silvermist Sauvignon Blanc is one of our favourite to date. It's crisp and clean nature with hints of lemon and sweet melon goes down an absolute treat with light meals. Perfect for a warm summer's day, a picnic, or just an evening with friends - this is the white wine of choice to serve. We love the exclusivity of this wine and with only few thousand bottles ever produced (each one individually labeled), we are compelled to snap up as many as we can before they are all (willingly) consumed. The beautiful estate is also home to one of the top restaurants in the country, La Colombe, and this comes as no surprise as this is a truly top wine.

Writer's block

Ours is about 3 feet by 3 feet, and on our left is the account's block. The marketing block is down the hall.

We're joking. Obviously.

Ours is at least 5 by 5, and on Wednesdays we're allowed to write in coffee shops to maintain the illusion that we're "successful" and "writerly".

Coming up with a write up for the simple sake of a write up does, however, become difficult when we're staring complete lack of creativity right in the face. But apparently asking management to cancel all the deals for the day isn't a viable fix.

As they so delicately put it, it'd be like a comedian having the option to suddenly cancel a show if they're not feeling up to it. Not on our watch, they said. You'll do a write up whether you like it or not, they said. And be funny, they said.

So here we are, doing a write up and being funny.
