Nigel's classical approach to winemaking and Michel Rolland's prodigious blending skills have produced yet another exquisite wine that speaks to tradition and innovation. Our inaugural vintage from the Ciminelli Vineyard is a blend of 75% Sauvignon Blanc (10% of which is Sauvignon Musqué) and 25 % Semillon, thoughtfully aged in 30% new French oak and the remaining in stainless steel to complement and honor the integrity of the fruit and the vineyard's terroir, respectively. Bright aromas and flavors of guava, lemon peel, nectarine, kiwi, and pineapple are mingled with hints of ginger, citrus blossom, and lemon verbena. This young vineyard's depth of character is astounding, and the balance of richness, texture, and vibrancy is remarkable. And though youthful today, this vintage is complex, layered, and full of personality and hints at the years of evolution ahead. Worthy of pairing with holiday dinners and celebrations, this wine should be enjoyed whilst in the company of good food, close friends, and cherished family. 143 cases produced.
