2010 J. Rochioli Sauvignon Blanc Old Vine

Vivid yellow. Candied lime, lemon and poached pear aromas are complicated by suave floral and ginger qualities and a hint of sweet butter. Deep, palate-staining citrus fruit flavors show excellent clarity and become sweeter with air, picking up subtle smoke and iodine nuances. Finishes sappy and very long, with impressive energy and lingering florality.
