2019ソーヴィニヨン・ブラン
2019ソーヴィニヨン・ブラン
Intense aromatics of lemon drop, lime peel, honeycomb, honeysuckle blossoms, as well as a chalky minerality. Swirling adds peach pit and lychee with wafting green notes of gooseberry and fragrant fresh herbs. The palate has great polish and weight with a touch more fruit sweetness than the nose suggests. Finishes classically dry and pithy with some mineral nuance that makes it irresistible.
Fresh-caught seafood like oysters, halibut or scallops
100% Sauvignon Blanc
受賞歴と称賛の声
"Bright, pale silver-yellow. Brisk, perfumed aromas of lemon drop, mint and tarragon, plus a varietal whiff of gooseberry. At once rich and bright, with lively lemony acidity framing and carrying the wine's intense fruit and herb flavors through a citrussy finish featuring surprising persistence and grip. This strikes me as both riper and brighter than the very good 2018 version. Plenty of palate presence for Sauvignon Blanc."
