From a heritage vineyard of the Gamache family, this showed grapefruit, melon and a touch of bay leaf. Spends a few months on new FO, but it's just enough to give it a noble bearing without the vanilla or smoothness usually attributed to same. Very good.

Very good Sauv Blanc--stately and clean, more serious than not and very true to the grape with no overt oak whatsoever even though part of it spent 8 mo on new FO. We drank part of it one day and the rest the next, and it showed more depth on the second day--would reward cellaring for next summer.

Very traditional, grapefruit and melon with a touch of bay leaf. Elegant mouthfeel, dry crisp finish. Excellent.

Light gold color, very clear, medium legs. Grapefruit on nose and palate. Acid present on finish. Very crisp, refreshing wine.
