Drink Wine and Giggle Gals rated this wine as 83/100 with the following review:

The Drink Wine and Giggle Gals were drawn to Monkey Bay Sauvignon Blanc as the monkey on the label bears a striking resemblance to the monkeys in the Barrel of Monkeys game. Although the monkeys in the game have been used to teach biology students about polyhedral structures of viruses and proteins, Monkey Bay Sauvignon Blanc has limited scientific applications. It is a reasonably-priced alternative to our go-to sauvignon blanc Kim Crawford that makes the Drink Wine and Giggle Gals want to link arms.

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
