Tasting notes
The 2017 Sauvignon Blanc Vogelzang Vineyard comes from more gravelly soils and spent 12 months in 10% new oak followed by six months in tank. It's the most exotic of the releases and has a big perfume of exotic flowers, white currants, figs, and honeysuckle. Beautifully textured, medium-bodied, with good acidity but plenty of richness and length, it's another singular, gorgeous Sauvignon Blanc from this estate that's up with the best of the best.

The 2017 Sauvignon Blanc Vogelzang Vineyard is the most aromatically intense and tropical of the Dragonette Sauvignon Blancs, which is attributable to the 30% Sauvignon Musque in the blend. Yellow orchard fruit, dried flowers, mint and apricot add to the wine's extroverted personality. This is such a gorgeous, inviting wine.
The 2017 Sauvignon Blanc Vogelzang Vineyard has a serious, savory nose of honeyed peaches, kiwi tart, dried hay, honeysuckle and spiced red apples with accents of crushed stone and citrus peel. The palate is medium-bodied and rounded with an energetic fruit profile, tangy acidity and a long finish. 250 cases were made.
