Winemaker Genevieve Janssens Notes
Intense primary aromas of
lemongrass mingle with the subtle
scent of lime blossoms and hints
of sage and spice. Mouthfilling
flavors of crisp yellow peach are
couched in a very smooth,
rounded texture. Thanks to the
small Sauvignon Blanc yields of
2008, flavors are concentrated
and the wine is already very
expressive in its youth.
