Tasting note
Made from the same blend as the 2004, the 2005 Sauvignon Blanc l’Apres Midi is 100% barrel-fermented with batonnage, but malolactic fermentation is avoided in order to give the wine crisper acids. Fresh, lively, and exhibiting notions of honeyed grapefruit, melon, and quince, this beautiful white wine will offer uncommon flexibility with an assortment of foods.
