Chateau Ste. Michelle Sauvignon Blanc Horse Heaven Vineyard 1996

Columbia Valley, Washington, United StatesLocated immediately adjacent to the Columbia River, Horse Heaven enjoys some of the longest, frost-free, growing seasons in Washington. Warm but not hot, temperatures result in grassy, honey, and citrus aromas with some kiwi and lees notes. Slightly more complex on the palate with an elegant restrained fruit finish. Fine balance makes this very easy to drink. Fresh Spring Halibut Provençal.Tasted: 01 September 1997Tasted by: Anthony Gismondi and Stuart TobePrices:
