Note di degustazione
The 2014 Sauvignon Blanc Estate spent lots of time on lees and includes 7% Semillon, aged 18 months one-third each of new barrel, once used barrels, and concrete eggs. It offers hints of stone fruits, citrus oil, lime, and tangerine on the nose and has a classic, Bordeaux-like profile. Rich, nicely concentrated, balanced and layered, with good acidity, it will drink nicely for a decade or more.

The 2014 Sauvignon Blanc Estate, 92% Sauvignon Blanc and 7% Semillon, was fermented in equal parts new French oak, used French oak and a concrete egg. The wine is a killer example of this blend. It spent 18 months in barrel prior to being bottled. There are 630 cases. With terrific fruit intensity, fabulous aromatics of honeysuckle, fig, caramelized citrus, melons and an almost waxiness, this beautiful, precise, incredibly pure, medium-bodied Sauvignon Blanc is super-intense and a real big-time winner. Drink it over the next 4-5 years, although it’s purest certainly in it exuberant youth because of the aromatic fireworks.
