  Sauvignon Blanc from a single vineyard located within the Dog Point vineyard, of vineyards planted in 1992 on soils of silty-clay loams. It is fermented and raised for 18 months in old French oak barrels. Tropical fruit, citrus, honey, floral, smoked, toasted, mineral, fresh, intense, fleshy, long, crunchy and persistent. A wonderful wine now although it can improve.

  Struck match, lemon, young, fresh, lemony fruit. The energy on the palate is completely outstanding, almost painfully young, huge acidity, so much spice, lovely reduction, just so much here on which to age. Huge SB, maybe even better than the 18? Needs years. 17.5+/20

  醒酒二十分钟，淡金黄色，闻香是扑鼻的烤芝麻和白花香气，入口酸度很高，酒液咸，矿物感突出，口中是白花的辛辣混合着青草，饼干，白芝麻和柠檬味，香气集中，复杂，酒体紧致，后段有着植物的微苦，余味冰糖香气，淡淡白花和青柠，口中回甘。开瓶即绽放，高挑的酸度，清晰的结构，极具辨识度的酒庄风格，酒的年份还很新，现在喝起来风格强劲，随着醒酒时间的增加，芝麻香气更加浓郁，别的方面变化不大，可以现在饮用，也可以适当陈年，真担心太长时间会磨平它的锐气，以后喝起来还会不会这么过瘾。

  Light yellow color. Full nose of talcum, white flowers, lemon, yellow apple, white peach. Dry, bright acidity, palate follows through (mid length). Medium body, very good balance, medium finish.

  One of my favorite NZ Sauvignon Blanc! Rather unique for the buttery and nutty flavors that bring by oak barrel fermentation. A strong and powerful SB that is worth everyone's trying!
