Old vine Sauv Blanc from our own backyard approaching a decade of maturity (although it still has nice freshness, we would guess it was only 5-6 years old).
expansive & palate coating, honeyed, lemon curd, roasted almonds, baked golden apples, butterscotch, dried vanilla bean, lush mid-palate, long dry finish, nice balance of fruit, body, and minerality. For fans of Pouilly Fume from warmer vintages.
