Note di degustazione
Starting with the 2017 Sauvignon Blanc L'Apres-Midi, this Bordeaux Blanc style effort has medium-bodied richness as well as tight, reductive notes of tart citrus, salty sea breeze, honeyed lime, and exotic flowers. It’s also beautiful aromatically on the palate and will benefit from a short decant if drinking any time soon. I’d imagine it will benefit from a year or two in bottle and keep for over a decade.

Peter Michael's 2017 Sauvignon Blanc L'Après-Midi is fresh, nuanced and super-expressive. Orchard fruit, mint, chamomile and dried flowers are all beautifully layered in the glass. Light on its feet and gracious, L'Après-Midi is an extremely versatile wine for the dinner table.
A blend of 90% Sauvignon Blanc and 10% Sémillon (30% Musque clone) 100% barrel fermented with 10% new oak, the 2017 Sauvignon Blanc l'Apres Midi gives wonderfully perfumed notes of honeyed apricots, guava and passion fruit with touches of lime blossoms and lemongrass plus a waft of wild thyme. Medium-bodied, the palate delivers mouth-filling exotic fruit with seamless freshness and a good long finish. 2,160 cases produced.
