The 2010 Sauvignon Blanc emphasizes fruit and body over varietal aromatics. Here, too, the Sauvignon comes across as quite conservative. It would be interesting to see what the estate might be capable of with a little more daring. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2014. Sant’Elena is an interesting property. The estate is located in Gradisca, a town that historically has not been known for the quality of its vineyards. Still, in recent years, Sant’Elena has produced a number of terrific wines under the leadership of proprietor Dominic Nocerino, best known as the owner of Vinifera Imports. There are still some kinks that need to be worked out, and not all of the wines I tasted merited inclusion for this report, but the best wines are well worth seeking out.Importer: Vinifera Imports, Ronkonkoma, NY; tel.
