Blue Mountain Estate Cuvée Sauvignon Blanc 2019

Okanagan Falls, Okanagan Valley, British Columbia, CanadaAgain, one of Canada's top sauvignon blancs, and at an insanely affordable price, the 2019 comes from 12-13 year old Okanagan Falls estate vines. After a native ferment in a mix of stainless, French oak, and foudre, this remained on fine lees with no bâtonnage, for 5 months. Bedded with river stones, threaded with lemon, and lined with herbal lees, this streams along the palate with an alluring salinity to a lingering, lightly smokey crystalline finish. Pristine, mineral expression of the grape, which is a welcome rare wonder, especially in Canada.Tasted: 04 August 2020Tasted by: Prices:
