An excellent value, the barrel-fermented 1999 Sauvignon Blanc was produced from 4-5 year old vines and contains 25% Semillon. A Riesling-like, sweet herbal tea bouquet leads to a light to medium-bodied, stone, apple, and melon-flavored character. Soft, with good focus, it will provide delicious quaffing over the next 12 months. Fax: (206) 488-4657

The 1992 Barrel Fermented Sauvignon Blanc exhibits an intense, pure nose of melons, figs, and herbs. Crisp, light-bodied, and well-balanced, it is an ideal aperitif wine or dry white for drinking with seafood. It should be consumed over the next 12 months.
