Note di degustazione
The 2019 White Savage is hand-sorted before being processed into Nomblot concrete tanks for alcoholic fermentation; 30% of the grapes are left whole bunch. It has an intense nose, not overt fruit but rather scents of wet wool, candle wax and lanolin, all beautifully defined. The palate is very well balanced with crisp acidity, a slightly waxy texture and touches of cereal and grilled hazelnut toward the persistent finish. It is not a wine for every palate, but those who like it will love it.

A blend of 64% Sauvignon Blanc, 20% Sémillon and 16% Chenin Blanc, the 2019 Proprietary White first begins with obvious yet soft grapefruit and herbaceous tones from the Sauvignon Blanc before aromas of citrus blossom flutter in with an undertone of underripe pineapple and wax melon in the glass. Medium to full-bodied, the wine offers a clean, crisp expression with a delightful mineral tension that feels almost dusty on the palate. Energetic acidity is front and center, as the wine displays a long, lingering finish. It's an absolutely delightful wine that demonstrates texture, elegance and beauty. Give it a try.
