A special bottle given to Elsa Vare by Enzo pontoni (Miani vigneron), we visited the vineyard whose name is written in the label--one of the magic wine moments. Pure salinity.

Another stunning Saurint Sauvignon. This is up there with the likes of Dagueneau and Vatan, phenomenally crafted, concentrated and weightless, with some extra tropical minerality

Intense and wildly complex, this youngster offers depth beyond belief, and thanks to Enzo's new winemaking ideas more purity of fruit than ever before. The '15 vintage was warmer than average, so no lack of shyness here. Needs another few years to fully come together, but hard to resist even at this early stage. Well done!

Easy 96+ points. There's no doubt in hell, that this belongs to the Sauvignon elite. The new vintage is stylistically different, as winemaking has changed, but it you don't hunt this down, you're an idiot.

Open knit aromas flows into a sleek profile Chardonnay which, considering the vintage (2014) is astonishingly rich and pure. Yes, it does miss the elite precision of the 2013 counterpart but is damn tasty.

2013. A different side of Sauvignon blanc--raw power

Aromatisk men strålklar, väldigt ren doft. Hint av vita krusbär, kaprifol och kinakål. Integrerad syra, kall frukt och förnimmelse av mineralitet. "Salt" avslut med aromer av vit persika, flingsalt och machésallad. Växer med luft, men är i nuläget ganska nedtonad.
