2019 | Cadre Vineyards | Stone Blossom Sauvignon Blanc

This wine shows up with appealing aromas and flavors of dried herbs and ripe fruit aromas and flavors.

Reviews:

• Wine Enthusiast: Lemongrass, lime sorbet, wet grass, light bell pepper and lily aromas are reminiscent of walking through a springtime meadow on the nose of this bottling by John Niven, whose family pioneered the Edna Valley. The palate is zesty with green grass, shiso chiffonade and minced jalapeno flavors, with a lingering white pepper elements into the acid-sizzled finish.

• James Suckling: A stunning mineral-inflected wine with ocean-influenced citrus, herbs, pure aromatics and lovely depth of flavor; juicy, fresh and showing melon and peach, long and balanced.
