Loved visiting Vineyard 29. Awesome wines by PMelka.

Good amount of oak with this SB. Notes of lemon and white nectarine. Nice minerality. Slightly bigger style SB and the oak will hold this for a few years. Enjoyed it.

Too much oak for my palate. It turns this wine into a key-lime, mango/melon expression which is simply just not my taste. I am sure plenty of people in this world like an Oaked American SB, I am just not one of them.

Rich. Honeydew melon and strong caramel tones on the finish.

Wow, a very powerful sav Blanc form v29, I can't wait to see how they make it. 100% new oak. Peaches and vanilla wafers with a touch of VA. I like
