Wine Review: This light yellow colored Sauvignon Blanc opens with a green pear bouquet. On the palate, this wine is medium bodied, balanced, and slightly creamy. The flavor profile is a tasty green apple with notes of gentle minerality and a touch of oak towards the back palate. The finish is dry, pleasant and lingers nicely. This very nice Sauvignon Blanc would pair perfectly with white vegetable lasagna. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: Our 2009 Mitsuko's Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc entices with its intense and complex aromas of passion fruit, pineapple, melon and dried grass, with undertones of tangerine, grapefruit and flint. The wine possesses vibrant minerality and pitch-perfect acidity counterbalanced by richness, depth and lengthy fruit flavors.
