Daou 2016 Sauvignon Blanc (Adelaida District)

Country: US /
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc California
Winery: Daou / Adelaida District

This is a richer style of Sauvignon Blanc, as would be expected from the Daou brothers, but is a fresher style than the last vintage. Aromas of toast, oak and yellow fruit prove quite seductive, and the palate proves grippy with dried lemon peels and cut-grass touches. There’s just a hint of smoke on the sip.
