Duckhorn Sauvignon Blanc 2017 sku_1331161 The vineyard’s clay loam soil

The vineyard’s clay loam soil gives La Lena added fragrance as well as a mineral backbone to its rich fruit profile

It’s showing beautifully right now and will continue to age gracefully for the next several years

Pleasant also when tasted before the meal as an aperitif

Its bouquet is characterised by an excellent balance between the quality of its original grapes and wine (noticeable in its floral and ripe fruit aromas) and its ageing through oxidation in wood (which gives it spicy and dry fruit aromas)

the wine is complex on the nose and palate with classic Pinot Noir aromas and flavors and a long finish
