2023 Divergence “Creek Road Vineyard” Sauvignon Blanc 🔥 92+pts

Different type of vintage, different source of fruit, from Four Mile Creek instead of the Lincoln Lakeshore, and the same style of winemaking resulted in a very different delivery. Bolder, juicier, with riper fruit, more approachable, and so very enjoyable. The acidity is still present and shows up at exactly the right time.

On the nose, aromas of guava, sweet lime, pineapple, gooseberry, dried herbs, and a hint of toastiness. The palate is rich but lifted, showcasing flavours of lemon, green apple, mango, guava, grapefruit, and fresh ginger. Just like the 2022 vintage, a hint of salinity also highlights the finish. This one was also barrel-fermented and aged for nine months, primarily in neutral oak, with 20% new French oak. This is truly a Fume style Sauvignon Blanc….
