Community Tasting Note

Saturday, October 20, 2007 - Wow...Amazing wine.
Nose is awesome with some asparagus/leeks aromas, grapefruit, wet stones, white flowers, green apple, lemon..all coming out one after the other.
The first sip is like biting a lemon! Tremendous acidity incredibly dry! But even this very high acidity the wine is completely balanced: lemon, grapefruit, mineral and floral notes with a very long finish slightly bitter. The fruit is clean and focused surrounded by this tremendous acidity. Flavors are all over the palate. I think this wine must see some kind of short barrel again/fermentation judging by the very light coconut aromas on the nose.
This is the first time that I found a Sauvignon blanc complex and this is a great great wine (and only 11.5%).
