Wine Review: This wine opens with a nice mild floral bouquet. On the palate, the wine is very acidic and refreshing. The finish is quite tasty and enjoyable. – Ken

Winemaker Notes: The Taylor's Vineyard Sauvignon Musqué displays a depth of character not often found in Sauvignon Blanc. Stone fruit aromas such as melon and Asian pears are evident along with a strong sense of minerality and texture. On the palate, these unique characteristics combine to fool one into thinking barrel fermentation is evident. However, 100% stain-less steel fermentation was used in making this wine. The finish has excellent balance and acidity making it a very food friendly wine.
