It’s been a long time since I rock n’ rolled, did the stroll, or Colio made a CEV grade Sauvignon Blanc … it doesn’t rhyme but the last part is most definitely true (enter Jimmy Page guitar riff here). The wine, made from a special block of Sauvignon Blanc grapes that hung just a little bit longer than usual, has an exceptionally long finish and would be of interest to sit on for a couple of years just to see how it develops more complexity. Right now, you have that typical Savvy B. nose of grass, hay, citrus and some lanolin. On the palate, we have some bracing citrus acidity and a touch of minerality. Let this one simmer on the shelf till next summer (2008), and I’ll guarantee a summer sipper that you’ll wish you’d bought more of … so to avoid disappointment, stock up now.
