Sound of White 'Barrel Fermented' Sauvignon Blanc 2022
New Zealand, Southern Valleys
Sauvignon Blanc
Description
A tightly bound and restrained wine, it needs air to open. Mellow notes of quince, black current leaf and ripe cantaloupe slowly reveal themselves. The palate has such elegance and length, it carries pristine precision. Balanced mid-palate fruit is guided by fine minerality, it gives the impression of being totally seamless.
