WINEMAKER'S NOTE:
The 2021 Sauvignon blanc offers a great deal of complexity. On the nose, it evokes white nectarines, Golden Delicious apples, honeysuckle, fresh green figs, lemon curd and fragrant white flowers. Though crisp up front, the mid-palate offers a medium-bodied texture. Its flavors include Bartlett pear, lime zest, brioche, yellow peaches, spiced apple tart and a touch of toasted walnut. The finish has a beautiful length with fresh acidity and subtle toasty notes.
TASTING NOTES:
Delicious, fruity and with a lively balance, this well-rounded and medium-bodied wine offers mild citrus, crisp pear and white peach flavors over good, tangy acidity. It was partially barrel-fermented and benefits from 19% Sémillon.
