Mission Hill Terroir Collection Jagged Rock Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc - Semillion 2019
Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaOliver's Jagged Rock Vineyard and its deep, glacial till soils at 365-385m yields this 70/30 sauvignon blanc / sémillon. Predominantly fermented in stainless, 10% went to neutral French oak, while 5% fermented in concrete egg. The sauvy is evident up front, with pithy lemon, tangerine, gooseberry, and passionfruit leading. The sém shows on the palate, with a slight oily slick, gliding this to a snappy, sagebrush finish. Polished, but still fresh and full of verve.Tasted: 22 April 2020Tasted by: Prices:BC | $35.00 | 750ml | winery and online exclusive |
