Description
WINEMAKER NOTES:
The lovely light yellow 2024 ‘L’Apres-Midi’ showcases an inviting blend of guava, white nectarine, fresh peach and lemon zest, framed with hints of white roses, jasmine and mango. A creamy entry and soft mouthfeel are balanced with juicy acidity and a generous body with impressive length and a clean finish. This is a classy Sauvignon Blanc ready to be enjoyed this afternoon.
Blend: 96% Sauvignon Blanc, 4% Sémillon
TASTING NOTES:
The 2024 Sauvignon Blanc L’Après-Midi contains 6% Sémillon. It matured in around 15% new French oak and was bottled the spring after the harvest. It has continually unfurling scents of flint, white peach, tarragon, lemongrass, graham cracker, chamomile and honey. The full-bodied palate is bursting with layers of flinty stone and citrus fruit, and it has a lifted, silky texture. It’s balanced by succulent acidity and has a long, perfumed finish.
