Tasting notes
The aromas to this great white show wonderful sherbet, limes, green melon, salt and honey blossom. Full to medium body, with a vertical, compact fruit presence, firmness and great length. Such energy and intensity with focus and elegance. Best white of Napa at the moment? Drink or hold.

Bottled in late July, the 2017 Sauvignon Blanc is a real step up from previous vintages, springing from the glass with vibrant lime cordial, orange blossom and grapefruit notes with touches of allspice, honeysuckle, ripe pears, white peaches and struck flint. Medium-bodied with a suggestion of satin to the texture and a fantastic intensity of exuberant citrus fruits and mineral notes, it delivers a very long, refreshing finish. This should age beautifully!
