"Unique and delicious, this Loire Sauvignon Blanc is reminiscent of a great white Bordeaux, such as Haut-Brion, thanks to the vanilla and toast flavors of barrel fermentation. With enough acidity for balance and ripe fruit flavors that give it concentration and complexity, it's head and shoulders above the rest. [1997 Top 100: Rank 16]" Wine Spectator, May 15, 1997 |
