Whole richly textured this is neither mineral/incisive nor vegetal not tropical. It is a goldilocks SB that lacks perhaps enough character to stand out in any way. Nonetheless is it impeccably balanced and can take more bottle age. I suppose I wish it were more expressive in the nose or alternatively fatter on the palate.

Aug 28th, 2022Clean, refreshing. Notes of lemon bars, pear, wet minerals veering into Pouille Fume territory, though not as smokey or racy, but almost more refined. Lovely, lengthy finish. Though it's a bit pricey for a Sauv Blanc, it grows on you in the glass.
Critics rating this a 93-96.
