A blend of 45% Semillon, 30% Sauvignon Blanc and 25% Sauvignon Gris, the 2019 Blanc was harvested from the 11th to the 20th of September. The yields were 58 hectoliters per hectare this year, with about 42% of production going into the grand vin. Scents of warm peaches, honey-drizzled pears and lemon curd slip gracefully from the glass, followed by hints of nutmeg, coriander seed and jasmine. Medium-bodied, the palate lends provocative savory sparks to all the citrus and spicy layers, backed up with a racy backbone and finishing on a lingering spiced-apple note. Yum! Production is expected to be around 1,600 cases.

A rich, flavorful white with apple and pineapple character with some mineral and stone notes. Full body. Salty undertone to the ripe fruit. Savory finish.

Aromas of sliced apples, fresh pears, melon rind and waxed lemons. Touches of thyme and sea salt. It’s medium-bodied with vibrant acidity and a waxy texture. More mineral finish. 45% semillon, 30% sauvignon blanc and 25% sauvignon gris. Drink now.
