Paglierino dorato. Al naso uva spina, ribes bianco, interessanti note idrocarburiche, finocchietto selvatico. Bocca rotonda, grassa, molto gradevole nella chiusura dolcemente agrumata. Nota alcolica un po’ sopra le righe

Last place I would look for the best Sauvignon Blanc I have ever tasted (twice). Just lovely to drink (no cat pee or tell tale SB signs) - just balanced, harmonious and delicious.

Sauvignon Blanc tasting (Riga): Nose initially of coriander, pepermint, may be dill, spices. Later on - hard candy, lemon, white flowers. Palate was rather soupy, no distinctive descriptors came to mind, somewhat inacurate. As it sit in the glass there came baking spices, (oak? - but there shouldn't have been any), smoke also came to mind - may be from lees stirring? It says, in 2011 it was pure SB with no malo and no oak, however in some previous years it was a blend of up to 60% oaked Pinot Blanc. (B-)

Tra il paglierino ed il dorato. Al naso bosso, mentuccia, pompelmo, notevole mineralità salmastra, erbe di campo, timo. Bocca intensa, molto sapida, grassa. Finale che riprende le note di menta ed un pizzico di cioccolato bianco

PnP. Just a brief taste at last nights dinner party, but I love this wine.
Great complexity and ripeness with a sleek elegance.
