Araujo Estate Eisele Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc 2016
One of California's top Sauvignon Blancs from Eisele Vineyard. Limited. 98 Points James Suckling: "Wow. The complex aromas are so compelling with sliced apples, lemons and cream. Some minerals and mustard seeds, too. Full-bodied, yet vivid and bright with sliced green apples, lime and green mangoes. Excellent intensity.." 92+ Points Robert Parker: "Bottled in June 2016, the 2016 Sauvignon Blanc gives up intense white peaches, grapefruit and lemon tart notes with hints of dried herbs, struck match, baker’s yeast and fresh hay. Medium-bodied, the palate lends a lovely satiny texture with a refreshing backbone lifting the vibrant citrus flavors, finishing long and steely. Drinking nicely now, it should cellar gracefully for 5-7+ years."

July 4th Friday was a total blowout! Killer bottles one after another. Here are just a few of the bottles we all enjoyed! Beautiful SauvBlanc made in the “super SauvBlanc” style. Bordeaux Blanc like aromatics of crushed limestone, slate, and rounded stone fruits. Quite soft on the palate with guava and lemon-lime lychee. High acidity at the moment.

Lime zest, underripe pineapple, grapefruit pith, and tropical fruits. A solid core of minerality drives everything forward. Really loved this with oysters and shrimp cocktail.
