2016 Shared Notes Sauvignon Blanc Les Pierres Qui Decident

Slightly more racy and lean, the 2016 Les Pierres qui Décident boasts loads of white grapefruit, green citrus, and white flowers, and shows a salty, iodine, marine-like influence on the palate. As with the Les Leçons des Maîtres release, it has serious acidity and needs to be forgotten for a good 2-4 years. The Shared Notes releases are a collaboration between the husband wife team of Bibiana Gonzalez Rave and Jeff Pisoni. The 2016s are distinctly racier and lean compared to the 2015s, but they’re going to gain weight and mid-palate depth with another year or two in bottle. These are both going to be very long-lived whites.
