Classic CA Sauvignon Blanc--high acid, green apple, lime, citrus, snap peas, green bean and some toast. Lightly oaked. Tartrate Crystals at about 60 degrees.

Tons of citrus and fruit. I taste a lot of pineapple. Touch of nutmeg and vanilla.

Racy and textured. A really nice expression of sauv blanc. Gooseberry, mineral and even some Christmas spice.

Not your average SB. Sees oak and shows vanilla on the finish

Clean, dry, surprisingly light in color for the age... who the hell drinks 8-year old SB. The wine is smooth, silky, balanced...displaying ripe quince, pineapple, kiwi notes...no sign of grass or gooseberry. Elegant food wine. Ok, still not my fav grape, but delicious foil for Shaking Beef and Chicken Gyozo.
