Ferrari-Carano Fume Blanc 2013

Sonoma County, California, United StatesEvery year I write a similar note for this consistent sauvignon as it continues its quiet evolution to be a leaner, fresher, more electric style sauvignon. No heat spikes in 2013 led to longer hang times and fully ripe flavours. The fruit is a mix of 100 percent sauvignon from several Sonoma County AVAs. After a cold settling the juice spends time in 65 percent stainless steel tanks or 35 percent French oak barrels for fermentation. Look for a creamy fresh texture with flavours of honeydew melon and lemongrass. Very food friendly, try with simple seafood and poultry dishes or surprise your guests and serve it with south Asian specialties.Tasted: 31 July 2014Tasted by: Prices:
