A very ripe vintage here.
Nose: tropical fruits. Yellow flowers.
Palate: tropical. Mineral of course. Delicious. Not as razor like as other vintages.
Needs 2-3 years or a serious decant now. Day 3 much better. It’s gone from goofily tropical to seriously tropical. Great balance. You get that weltner razor like balance. Bravo. More lemon on the palate with elegant 33% pineapple.

Palate : dense. Rich. Good acidity. Amazing wine. Maybe the best sauvignon blanc I’ve ever had.

“Swiss wine is too expensive” they said. Lol. This is very good village puligny quality for $40 or so.
Nose: seashells. White flowers. So perfumed and intense.
Palate: silky minerality. Gods lemon juice. Not the harsh lemon acidity. Like if lemon were a fruit you could eat like an apple. Silky texture. Utterly delicious.
