I am tasting the 2019 vintage on September 16, 2020. The nose comes across like New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc with pungent, sour fruit and grassiness. The palette tones that down with creaminess that I assume is Semillon, although the pungent notes come through. This seems more like a New World wine than an Old World one, with little to distinguish the terroir.
