| Notes | This Sauvignon Blanc is grown in chalky, flinty soils in Pouilly-Fume. The grape juice is fermented naturally, without adding cultivated yeasts, producing a wine with real character. It has mineral aromas and flavors with finesse and elegance. "Shows nice weight for the vintage, with straw and white peach flavors laced with hints of lightly toasted macadamia nut and honeysuckle that echo through the finish." (Wine Spectator) | ||||
