The resulting wine is golden hued with opulent aromas of roasted nuts, grilled pineapple, lemon oil and gun smoke. The palate is equally rich but restrained, countered by mouthwatering acidity, with focus and flavor depth that lingers long on the finish. It's a Sauvignon made like a Chardonnay, so it won't be to everyone's tastes, but this bottling, from a strong vintage, finds great balance and could cellar for several years.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e93\/100\u003c\/strong\u003e — Wine Enthusiast · 2020 Vintage (Tasted: Nov 2023)\u003cbr\u003e“Pale lemon yellow.

It's so powerful and concentrated. Tightly wound and phenolic with a medium body and sharp acidity. Intense, and just keeps going. Always a sophisticated and complex sauvignon blanc. From organically grown grapes. Drink or hold.
