six sigma michael’s vineyard sauvignon blanc (lake county)

點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：1722

This barrel-fermented SB opens with a rich vanilla nose and then gets delicately tropical without overdoing it. A very fine example of Lake County’s ability to grow nicely mannered Sauvignon Blanc and Six Sigma’s deftly achieved balancing act between crisp and creamy.——V.B.(4/1/2012)—— 89

Nicely dry and crisp, with mouthwatering citrus fruit, lemongrass, gooseberry and mineral flavors. Marred by excessively unripe feline notes, however, that bother the palate. — (10/1/2010) —85

A fine example of Lake County Sauvignon Blanc, offering crispness, brightness and integrity. Shows intense flavors of citrus fruits, lemongrass and herbs, and is totally dry, with a mineral-laden spiciness in the finish. — (2/1/2010) —90

Lots of new French oak barrel fermentation and lees stirring went into the making of this wine, and it shows the yeasty richness and creamy texture of that expensive handling. Yet the underlying wine is just very good. It has very bright acidity, with slightly sweet flavors of spearmint chewing gum, lemons and limes. — (12/31/2007) —87
