Medium-dark golden yellow. Good nose, with distinct jasmine notes. On the palate, tangerine, apricot, honey, pear, and a touch of flowers, with smokey minerals. Full bodied, with a richness I wouldn't previously have expected from Sauvigon Blanc (almost like Sauternes, in some aspects). Unlike any Loire Sauvignon I've had before, but the smokey minerals proclaim its appellation. A remarkable wine, with 2 - 3 years ahead of it. Excellent / Exceptional (89 - 91). [8/3/09]
