Lovely honeydew melon and Meyer lemon notes on the nose are complemented by lime curd and jasmine. The round mid-palate leads seamlessly into a lengthy finish with plenty of minerality and fruit characters to balance it. This is a complex and remarkably ageable Sauvignon Blanc that can be enjoyed now.
Honig Description
Aroma notes of vanilla and lemon cookies give way to hints of floral and flinty minerality. On the palate, vibrant roasted Meyer lemon with subtle white nectarine notes are layered on top of a creamy mid-palate. This luxurious mouthfeel is complemented by bright acidity and a long lingering finish.
James Suckling: 91 Points
Fresh and clean, this offers sliced apples, lemon pith, white flowers and crushed stones on the nose. Textured and balanced with medium body and vivid acidity, it finishes sleek and mineral. Drink or hold.
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
A flinty note adds a steely edge to the core of pear, lemon zest and lime sherbet, with ruby grapefruit, plump quince, lime leaf, thyme and spice accents alongside vibrant acidity. Drink now.
