Very vegetal with artichoke and cardoons, lemon, green apple, nice texture and a 2016 SB from Napa is not so typical.

Trendy? Yes, but it’s also tasty. Perhaps the softest SB I can remember. None of the lemongrass or bright citrus but instead is more round with the semillon and very soft from the oak. A nice wine if you don’t mind the style.

Vit 50/50-bordeauxblandning. Frisk och ganska kartig för sin ålder. Måste vara tidigt skördad. Fatjäst men det känns mest för texturen skull.
