Description
White Wine by Quivira from Central Coast, California. The 2018 release is a nod to a fine white Bordeaux. The aromatics begin with candied orange and honeyed fig and then evolve to develop into flavors of bitter orange marmalade, pomelo grapefruit, more citrus (less tropical) notes, a mild grassiness, and a tiny amount of freshly cut dill. A mix of new and neutral barrels add breadth and range while the stainless steel gives a freshness and pop of natural acidity. The mixture of herbs, fruits, and honey plus the refreshingly crisp palate makes this wine delightful. Petrale sole would be grand as a pairing as would vegetarian potstickers or arugula salad with dill goat cheese and raspberries. This Sauvignon Blanc is also tasty with oysters or mussels. Blend: 75% Sauvignon Blanc, 25% Semillon
