Coeur a Coeur Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend

2018 vintage. 50% Sémillon, 50% Sauvignon Blanc from the estate vineyard in Knights Valley, Sonoma. 100% barrel fermented, no malolactic. Exotic fruit, flowers, perfect oak handling.Great balance between Sémillon richness and Sauvignon freshness. The high alcohol ( abv. 15,1) is perfectly integrated. Very long too.

Fat, rich and indulgent. Loads of honey and acacia. Good minerality.

One of my favorite California whites. Semillon-Sauvignon Blanc blend with melon pear & wildflowers on nose. Quince, vibrant lemon peel & mineral palate. Refreshing, complex & delicious!

One of my favorite California white wines. Exotic notes of mango, melon & dried apricots. Medium bodied with a rich mouthfeel & long finish.

This afternoon I am trying a 2009 Peter Michael Coeur A Coeur (Heart to Heart) a blend if Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon. To nose is nice with notes of pineapple, caramelized apples, gooseberry, bees wax and minerality. The palate gives a very smooth and rich almost oily mouth feel. Citrus notes, lemon, apricots, quince with a nice minerality. Even with this age for a white still has a nice medium acidity. A nice wine all in all.

Enjoyed May 2022

Too green to be good for the price. I should have known better. Looking forward to the other two bottles I have in a few years from now.

50% Semillion 50% SB
I’m quarantined until I finish up in the back,

First time having this, top notch bottle!

Really delightful. Great fruit. Crisp and delicate but substantial. Loved it!
