Nice to revisit this wine. From a 750ml. Amber in color, clear and bright. The nose has honey, ginger and peach. Slightly viscous. The palate is sweet with good acidity. Flavors of honey and peach. Long finish. Drink over the next ten to fifteen years. It will works well with short bread cookies.
Always a pleasure to drink d'Yquem. This vintage is 75% Semillon and 25% Sauvignon Blanc. From a 375ml bottle.
Green/gold in color, clear and bright. The nose is great but not blowsy. Melon, slight citrus and flint. Light to medium bodied. Crisp. On the palate, this drinks easy but it also has some persistence. Flavors of melon and lemon. Nice finish. This is very nice for drinking alone and will work well with cheeses or salads (such as crab or chicken). Drink over the next few years.
Made with Estate grown fruit. Light green/gold in color, clear and bright. The nose is nice with limes, green apples and a touch of lemon. Medium bodied. Nicely balanced. Refreshing. On the palate, limes are the forefront with a touch of lemons on the finish. This is easy drinking but has some substance. It drinks well on its own and will work well with lighter foods. A nice summer lunch wine. Drink over the next couple of years although it is a bit past prime already.
Bedrock makes some of the best values in California wines. Sometimes it seems though that the whites don't get the attention. This is an excellent Sauvignon Blanc and great value. Light gold with some green hues in color, clear and bright. The nose is clean with good minerality along with a bit of lemon. Medium bodied. Nice texture. Good acidity. On the palate, this is crisp with minerality and citrus. Long finish. This is great on its own and will work with many foods. It would be great with Tuna Salad.
Wow. One of the best Sauvignon Blancs I have drank. Pale yellow/green in color, clear and bright. The nose is great with slight tropical fruits along with an assortment of herbs and lots of minerality. Medium bodied. Great balance. On the palate, this is concentrated and in no way over blown. Plenty going on though. Lots of minerality with some tropical fruits. Long finish. Great on its own, this is very food friendly. It worked great with Pasta Aioli. Drink over the next five to ten years.
Light green/gold in color, clear and bright. The nose is great with honey dew, slight tropical notes, and a bit of sea air. Nice texture. Good acidity. Crisp, yet with rounded edges. On the palate, this is tasty with honey dew melon and some minerality. Long finish. This is delicious on its own and will work well with lighter foods. Chicken Salad or Tuna Salad would be a great match. Drink over the next five years.
Sadly an off bottle. This was pretty well oxidized. Likely a faulty cork. Other bottles in the case had shown much better.
