Amazing, complex, and intriguing. Our first taste since 2010 when rated a 93. And, sadly our last. Have never held a sauvignon blanc for 7 years. This is the last year in the CT window. First, this fantastic wine is nowhere near the end of its drinking window. No flaws. Color golden yellow, much more like a chardonnay than a s. blanc. No sediment. Moderate rim variation. Faint white floral nose. No tannin. Low alcohol. Medium finish. Again: Amazing.

Golden straw color. Aroma of tropical fruit, melon. The palate is rich and luscious. Honey dew, citrus, honey. With a layered finish that extends beyond typical Sauvignon blanc. Near the top of the tier.

This is an amazing Sauvignon blanc. It has a remarkable structure and body to it. Almost chewy in nature. Much more body than one would expect from this varietal. The wine presents wonderful layered flavors of melon, vanilla, citrus. Describing this wine as sumptuous would not be inappropriate.

Too much oak. Difficult to drink.
