Fermented and matured in a combination of oak barrels and foudres, the 2021 Fume Blanc Estate features grassy, herbal scents, plus crushed stone and pencil shavings. There's not a lot of fruit up front, but some ripe melon and fig notes emerge on the medium-bodied palate. Plump and silky in texture, with a grapefruity finish, it's a solid, food-friendly Sauvignon Blanc. Published: Dec 29, 2023

The 2021 Sauvignon Blanc Fumé Blanc is rock-solid, with reductive notes of lime, honeyed apple, and crushed stone in its juicy, medium-bodied, vibrant profile. It's a borderline outstanding Sauvignon Blanc to enjoy over the coming 2-3 years.
