Note di degustazione
The 2016 Sauvignon Blanc is cut from the same cloth as the 2015 with its vibrant, racy, mineral-driven style. Green citrus, grapefruit, crushed rock, hints of matchstick and orange blossom all emerge from this gorgeous white that has solid concentration, bright acidity and a great finish.

Composed of 83% Sauvignon Blanc, 10% Sauvignon Gris and 7% Sémillon fermented 17% in new oak, 48% in neutral oak and 35% in concrete, the 2016 Sauvignon Blanc Mt. Veeder has quite an earthy/mineral nose to begin, featuring notes of wet pebbles, chalk dust and damp moss over a core of ripe peaches, lemon curd and dried herbs. The medium to full-bodied palate has great vivacity and depth, sporting a beautifully chewy phenolic texture and rasping backbone of acidity to support the intense citrus and herbal flavors, finishing on a lingering chalky note. Still very youthful, forget it for a year or two and drink it over the next 10-12 years+.
