Kamen 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Estate, Moon Mountain Sonoma

Winemaker Notes: “Aromas of green apple, pineapple, white-fleshed stone fruit, star fruit, and ginger blossoms explode from the glass; followed by hints of raw sugar cane, honeydew rind, quartz, and lemon verbena. The palate possesses amazing texture and a backbone of racy acidity. Flavors of Rainier cherries and white stone fruits are abundant and lead to a fresh and lively finish.”

Anthony Galloni/Vinous 94 Points: “The 2018 Sauvignon Blanc is fabulous. In this vintage, the Sauvignon Blanc stands out for its intense aromatic presence and exceptional balance. Tropical overtones, white flowers, mint, and apricot give the Sauvignon a rather exotic feel that is quite distinctive. Rich and luscious but not at all heavy, the 2018 is simply exceptional.”

Robert Parker: “The 2018 Sauvignon Blanc is composed of 85% Sauvignon Blanc with 15% Sauvignon Musqué clone. It gives up notes of lemonade, fresh limes and yuzu with touches of grapefruit and wild thyme. Medium-bodied, the palate gives a great intensity of citrus and grassy flavors with a lively backbone and invigorating finish.”
