Strong citrus. Citrus and grassy herbal notes. Intense minerals. I find it very hard to judge these young Sauvignon Blanc de garde. It’s clear how much is there but the wine is not yielding much pleasure at the moment.

Not sure what happened to this wine. According to the sticker on the bottle it had a 95 rating from Robert Parker. It had this weird, strong green pea like veggie, lime citrusy off-flavor that just didn’t want to go away. The three of us tried, two days in the row but couldn’t even finish a small glass. So had to dump the rest. Win some, lose some.

W&S Top 100, very amazing how grassy Sauvignon Blanc can get. Would love to see a chef taste this and then say, “yep, I’m gonna make X.”

A bright wine that at open is a bit sweet and very drinkable, but it’s subtle complexity becomes more prominent over time. I’d say best to let it breathe for 10 minutes before enjoying. Extremely satisfying to drink between 2-4 people
