July 4th Friday was a total blowout! Killer bottles one after another. Here are just a few of the bottles we all enjoyed!
Beautiful SauvBlanc made in the “super SauvBlanc” style. Bordeaux Blanc like aromatics of crushed limestone, slate, and rounded stone fruits. Quite soft on the palate with guava and lemon-lime lychee. High acidity at the moment.

Spent 12 months aging in concrete egg, stainless, new and used oak.
Very pale yellow green. Aromas of guava, cucurbit/melon, somewhat herbal, but not at all green.
Juicy and long, with a creamy, mouthfiling texture.

Lime zest, underripe pineapple, grapefruit pith, and tropical fruits. A solid core of minerality drives everything forward. Really loved this with oysters and shrimp cocktail.

This blew away all expectations...candied Christmas fruit and zesty pineapple. Fresh, balanced and bigger than it has any right to be. Mellow beauty of age it has no business wearing. Wow.
