    A Sauvignon Blanc-dominated wine that is crisp while also having some weight and fatness from the Sémillon in the blend. It is full of fruit, with lemon and crisp apple flavors. The aftertaste is tight and tangy with lemon zest.

  • 201486 pts

    This is an attractively balanced blend of 60% Sauvignon Blanc and 40% Sémillon. It is still at its youthful, green-herb stage although signs indicate that the wine will round out and fill. The aftertaste hints at crisp apples and Rocha pears.
