Medium lemon yellow core with a clear rim. Tons of youthful, floral aromas explode from the glass. Orange blossom, jasmine and rich apricot are underscored by darker wet stone, and lifted back up by baking spices and fresh citrus. Very floral on the palate with stone fruit flavors of peach and apricot, surrounded by lemon and lime. Fresh, crisp and easy to drink.

Steely lemon aromas are surrounded by tons of white flowers (particularly jasmine) and a bit of ripe green pear. Cream and oak on the front palate over lighter notes of apple and pear. Bold acid on the mid-palate pushing tons of lemon and cream through the finish.
Aged in 100% French oak, of which 15% is new.

Pale lemon yellow core with a clear rim. Candied lemon zest aromas surrounded by jasmine, sweet herbs, wet stone and a touch of cantaloupe. Soft entry on the palate with sweet white peach balanced by a zesty core of lemon. Medium acidity with tons of minerals under the fruit. Medium length with a clean, crisp finish.
100% Sauvignon Blanc (somewhat rare for this region as you often fine Semillon blended with it). Delicious right now, but enough acid and body to hold for a little while. Drink over the next 2 - 3 years.

Medium straw yellow. Very sweet jasmine and white flower aromas, with apricot, peach and candied lime. Very toasty on the front of the palate. Candied yellow pears and rich citrus fruit with a dark, almost cassis-like note.
