The wine opens with white flowers, Meyer lemon, rocky minerality and spice on the nose. The palate is broad, rich and long, with plenty of tension between the citrus-laden acidity and the plush texture lent by a little bit of Sémillon and barrel aging. This is among the best Sauvignon Blancs out there. Period.

The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc includes the addition of 20% Sémillon and was raised in a combination of French oak and a small portion of cement. Pouring a brilliant silver/straw hue, it takes on a distinctly Bordeaux Blanc-styled profile on the nose, with crystalline aromas of lemon candies, spices, tropical flowers, and fresh grapefruit. Medium-bodied, with a luxurious, rounded feel, it reveals a lot of refinement on the palate, offering a silky texture and a weightless, mouthwatering finish. It’s only going to improve if given the chance, but it’s delicious now. Drink 2025-2035.
