April 7, 2023 - At first this shows nothing but oak note. After 2 hours of patience, what the producer intended could be noticed vaguely. Lemon, green apple, herb note with fresh minerality. Not great but pretty enjoyable with food.

September 21, 2012 - Much like their Chardonnay, this has seen some oak and really does not reflect the grape qualities well. All of the nuances in Sauvignon are lost due to the presences of French oak. Misses its mark and there are way better Langhe Sauvignons out there for less money than this.
