This 3-barrel output of Sauvignon Blanc spent 20 months in older French oak, so as not to overwhelm those delicate Sauvignon Blanc grapes. It starts off with subtle notes of floral and vanilla, adds in some herbal and savoury spices, finishing with notes of tropical fruit and citrus … it’s fresh and lively due to its acid backbone but there’s a definite flavor punch from the barreling.
