Swirling brings up white tea, sweet green apple, and pineapple rind. The palate has vibrant acidity, good volume, and glossy polish. Flavors of pithy stone fruit and citrus linger on the finish.

Medium-bodied with fresh, stony-mineral character. Bright. Stone fruit and tropical fruit drive the palate, with herbal and peppery complexity. Nicely composed and long. Drink now. ### Owen Bargreen, Vinous 90 / 100 > The 2020 Sauvignon Blanc delivers ripe green apple and herbal tones on the palate, along with plenty of minerals and a soft mouthfeel. Enjoy this over the next several years.
