Brian Smith, author of The Sommelier's Guide to Wine and former wine director about town (Auriole Las Vegas, Clo NYC), expands his Crazy Beautiful empire to the castle-strewn hills of of the Loire Valley, sourcing grapes from several stellar growers to produce this bright and snappy Sauvignon Blanc.
