Bevan Cellars
Kick Ranch Sauvignon Blanc
Sonoma County, California, USA
One the nose; ripe pineapple, mango, lemon, guava, cut dry grass, notes of green beans and yellow florals. On the palate, nice dry style. Ripe pineapple, mango, lemon, lime zest, guava, cut dry grass, note of green beans, slight saline, good chalkiness, nice acidity and round, rich finish. Touch hot on alcohol. It otherwise nice.

Nose had a kitty litter, grass and gooseberry. Palate was richer than I expected.

Aromatics of passion fruit and pineapple. So exotic on the nose.
On the palette, white peaches pulsate with bright acidity. Tones of crushed rocks come along for the ride. Deftly sweet with an extended, almost creamy finish. Extravagant and revolutionary in the world of sauv blanc.

Oh yeah - 2nd bottle selection tonight - first sip is singing to me - saying Lionel Ritchie "party, fiesta - all night long" - smiles keep coming

On the palette, the wine shows huge extraction. Bright notes of peach, melon and citrus fruits shine through. Superb tension between acidity and minerality. Stunning for its polish and resonance.

We were treated with an explosion of passion fruit, lychee and grapefruit.
Palete is consistent, vibrant and energetic. Finishes with moderate sweetness and a smidgen of yeast. Another wine that was introduced to us by @David L. In my opinion, this is fast becoming a reference point in the SB world.

Wonderful! Not as great as his 95 pt dry stack or RRV, but wonderful none the less! Aromas of a slight grassy herbality, pineapple and grapefruit on the nose and pallet, with notes of melon, raw honey, and ripe tropical fruits, with an oaky, tingling spice that lingers and numbs on the tongue. Gotta say Bevan Cellars makes a killer Sauvignon Blanc, as well as ANYTHING wine he touches.

Beautiful as always.. Creamy for a sauv, unfiltered and awesome. Bright pineapple and grapefruit with a nice creamy zing.
