  A fine example of what makes Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire rightly famous. At 5 five years old, water bright, with inviting aromas of lemon and lime citrus plus meadow flowers. Enters the mouth with acidity that is upfront, lively, and concentrated. The swallow triggers a spike of fruit and acidity that coats the top of the mouth and endures throughout a long and mouthwatering finish. Delicious by itself and very food friendly.

  Faint yellow with delightful smells of lemon. Juicy and lively in the sip. The swallow features lemon, a nice texture, mouth cleansing acidity, and a long finish.

  Best bottle yet.....unfortunately, the last one. More depth and complexity that earlier bottles.

  Way past it's drinking window, on a blind tasting I would have been tempted to call it a "manzanilla" it has that toasted almond chamomile with a hit of smokiness. Score is based on prior bottles.

  Second to last bottle. The first bottle or two were a terrific value. The next couple of bottles were a good value. This one is back to being a terrific value.....maybe better. Citrusy, crisp with a lot going on.
