Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
The 2008 vintage of this Fumé Blanc is a focused and evocative expression of the I Block’s venerated terroir and old-vine intensity. Lacey aromas of mandarin citrus and white peach bridge to a concentrated palate of pure fruit flavors, stone, and lemon oil mingled with floral notes and Turkish figs. Bright, balanced acidity establishes the heights of the flavor profile while an elegant texture and weight define the wine’s profound density.
