Glass: Zalto Universal Popped and poured, drunk over two days. Cuvee of 66% Sauvignon Blanc and 33% Semillon. Clear, medium lemon-golden color. Clean, medium+ intense, developing nose. Classic grassy Sauvignon notes, mixed with gooseberries, elder and some dark, smoky notes and crushed stone. Dense and deep. Bold wine with 14,5% abv. Best drunk with food like fish with cream sauce. Medium acidity, partially a bit hot. Medium+ body. Classic Sauvignon aromas, nettles, zests, grapefruit, mineral notes and a firm oak backbone. Very dense and a bit creamy. Rather long finish. At its peak. 91-92

Wonderful impersonation of a top notch white bdx. Well balanced, nice nose and exceptional on the palate. This will continue to grow as it did in the glass so drinking it now benefits alot from a good decant.

As you might expect from a fine winery melding S.B. and semillon, this has good citrus notes and a smooth texture. Went great with curry chicken.

Big floral nose. Golden color.
Bright and sumptuous, the wine is layers of citrus with a mouth coating richness. Long finish.
