2019 Little Sister Sauvignon Blanc
Double Gold 95 Pt
Little Sister to our Three Sons
Tasting Notes:
The 2019 Little Sister Sauvignon Blanc is French style, modeled after a crisp, but rich Sancerre. It has classic neutral citrus notes, with a floral nose that hints of dandelions and a sea breeze with their earthy complements. The delivery yields bright acidity for those warm days and light dishes, offering a mid-palate of flinty minerality, a hint of tart pineapple, passion fruit, and salinityon the back palate. The finish is crisp, long and lingering, for which Halleck Vineyard wines are noted.
Winemaking:
This wine was fermented in steel tanks and 20% of the total spent three weeks in neutral oak. There was no malolactic fermentation. After fermentation, all wine was tank aged until bottling.
