Winery Review: Our Sauvignon Blanc fruit was 100% whole-cluster pressed to minimize
astringency from the skins. Once settled, a portion of the juice was
placed in small neutral French oak barrels, while the majority was moved
to stainless steel tanks for fermentation. This combination allows the
wine to develop a balance of crispness and tropical fruit flavors. The
wine in barrels was sur lie aged and stirred consistently. The final
blend was a combination of lots that provided a perfect balance of
richness, bouquet and mouth feel.
My Review:This wine had a very tropical nose. It had pineapple and I think mango components. The first taste was strong with grapefruit. It had very strong citrus. It had a smooth mouth feel.
