This is a pretty intense Sauvignon Blanc, with fairly high alcohol and a lot of ripe fruit, yet it is not overblown. Very refreshing but not thin or vapid at all, it has real character.

I've never had a sauvignon blanc with such tropical richness, almost in the style of a viognier, including the high alcohol, which is noticeable but in an acceptable way. Very different from, say, Edi Kante's SB.
Well, no, it isn't precisely viognier, it is rather a sour richness with mineral notes, like Hugh Johnson's description of an aged grand cru Chablis in the wine atlas of 1980.
On the 4th day, the nose shows bunker fuel, and the wine is still sort of too much.
