  Retail $50. 78.5% Sauvignon Gris, 21.5% Sauvignon Blanc. A blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Gris, the first vintage of Elevator Blanc was back in 2004. According to winemaker Elizabeth Vianna, this ia a wine meant to age at least 5-15 years. Aged 1/3 new French oak, 1/3 neutral oak, and 1/3 stainless steel. Nice lemon fruit with a hint of oak in the glass along with lovely mineral notes. Wonderful fruit on the palate with a nice roundness but also brilliant acidity. Lengthy finish. Yowza. 93 Points.
