Fiddlehead Cellars Goosebury Sauvignon Blanc 2013

97
Fiddlehead Cellars Goosebury
Fanciful Name: Goosebury
Varietal: Sauvignon Blanc
Vintage: 2013
Country of Origin: California
Appellation: Santa Ynez Valley
Retail Price: $35

Tasting Notes: A “New World” style, fermented in stainless steel and unoaked to display the beautiful aromas and flavors characteristic of sauvignon blanc grown in the unique micro-climate of Happy Canyon. Fresh hints of peach, mango, and zest of mandarin mingle with a mineral nuance on the nose. Those tropical flavors gently take over the palate and carry through to the finish where the ”terroir” and crisp, lively acidity make you smack your lips. New World, yes, but reminiscent of pouilly-fumé or sancerre. This is a must try for the connoisseur of sauvignon blanc.

A steely edge indicates firm tannins, but they are very well integrated.
