2002 X Winery - Lake County Sauvignon Blanc

Description

The Sauvignon Blanc has crisp acidity and a bold nose of gooseberry, grapefruit, passion fruit and mango. Light/medium in body, this wine has seen neither oak nor oxygen. It offers fruit-forward flavors of tropical fruits, grapefruit and lime. Sophisticated and elegant, it is well balanced to enjoy over the next 4 years. Fruit lingers on the refreshing finish.

Awards

"Further advances this county's case for Sauvignon, with an exciting balance of lush, ripe fig, peach and apricot flavors, crisp acids and a long, spicy finish. Feels creamy and tart in the mouth, like a rich sorbet, and is very complex."
87 pts Wine Advocate (Robert Parker)Dec. 23 2003
"A crisp, light-bodied example offering notions of figs and melons in a fresh, delicious style."
