2015 Sauvignon Blanc (de la vigne) available in the UK @synergy_wines
Posted @withregram • @synergy_wines Secret Sommelier comments:-
It is unusual to taste new world Sauvignon Blanc with some bottle age and for a 2015 vintage this wine is phenomenal; it has notable energy and surprisingly persistent acidity (for the age that is). The mineral texture of this wine is crunchy but turns into silk on the palate. An elegant wine that is very complex! The classic green vegetal flavours are harmonised with gooseberries, citrus fruit and tropical fruit nuances with minerality that shines on the finish. The wine has length. In the glass…Old world meets new world in perfect harmony. Mirrors Sancerre Mont Damnes’ quality and complexity at a fraction of the price.
LIME ROCK is a stunning vineyard situated on limestone hills in sunny Central Hawke’s Bay, New Zealand specialising in Pinot Noir, Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris, Merlot and Grüner Veltliner. Elegance, balance and length are a feature of our wines. The limestone contributing to the sought-after mineral characters.
