Note di degustazione
74% Sauvignon Blanc, 26% Sémillon. Medium lemon with a hint of green. Fresh wild chives, vanilla blossom, caramelised orange peel, caramelised lemon curd. So much flavour and fresh, mouth-watering acidity. Quite weighty on the palate. Caramelly and long finish. Gorgeous. (SCJ)

This estate makes a brilliant Sauvignon Blanc blend, and the 2020 White Wine On The White Keys is 74% Sauvignon Blanc and 26% Semillon. It has a Bordeaux Blanc-like nose of lemon curd, white flowers, beeswax, and honeyed minerality, with medium-bodied depth, good mid-palate concentration, and a great finish. It's a thrilling white.
The 2020 On The White Keys Artists Reserve is terrific. It offers an exciting mélange of dried pear, chamomile, spice, mint and dried almonds. The higher percentage of Sémillon here vis-à-vis the On The White Keys and longer élevage in oak yields a layered, phenolic white that is incredibly distinctive. Light tropical accents infuse the finish.
The 2020 On The White Keys is bright and beautifully textured, with lovely depth and class that is apparent right out of the gate. I would give the 2020 at least a year or two in bottle, as it truly needs time to emerge. There is a lot of personality here. This fruit is sourced from the Farina vineyard on Sonoma Mountain.
