The Prince in 2009 is gloriously turbid. Cloudy is not even the right word. It is so nearly gelatinous that one truly wonders what strange techniques, what unspecified additives, brought about this result.
The wine is simply a skin-fermented Sauvignon Blanc. No additions or subtractions. It is more dense than the 2008, less orange than the 2007, more citrus-y than any previous incarnation. It is quite yuzu-like. It gives joy as unforeseen pleasure succeeds surprise and atopia.
