Giesen's 2018 The August 1888 Sauvignon Blanc features an intricate interplay of aromatic boxwood with ripe fruit notes of nectarine and fig. It's a complex, medium to full-bodied example of barrel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc, round and silky in the mouth, yet finishing crisp and long with lingering pink grapefruit flavors.

Giesen's 2014 The August 1888 Sauvignon Blanc is a blend of Dillons Point and Matthews Lane fruit, aged in old barriques. It features a rich, layered texture, ample weight and complex notes of tropical fruit, stone fruit and grapefruit. In short, it's a complete, harmonious if slightly understated package.

Fermented in oak barrel, 8% new, and aged in oak for five months with occasional stirring and partial spontaneous malo-lactic, the 2010 The August Sauvignon Blanc reveals an intense nose of kumquat, fresh grapefruit, lime tart and orange zest with nuances of cedar and baking bread. Medium bodied and with a gentle silkiness to the texture, the palate offers concentrated citrus and toasted flavors with lively acidity and a very long finish. Drinking nicely now, it should cellar through 2015+. Importer: Dreyfus Ashby, New York, NY
