A humdinger of a white, tasted both at the château and in Montreal. Cold maceration prior to fermentation allows for terrific extraction of flavour in this gorgeous Sauvignon Blanc. There is a fresh, lively nose of cut grass, gooseberry, zesty lime and lemon curd. The equally vibrant palate is well supported by puckering, mouthwatering acidity, bursting with flavours of zesty grapefruit and herbaceous summer florals. 2024-2025–MP
