The 2018 Sauvignon Blanc Vieris is decidedly spicy in this vintage. Yellow flowers are elevated and intensified by notes of lemon-infused young mango and pungent minerals. It’s texturally rich and smooth while also sporting a blend of zippy acidity and sour citrus that forces the cheeks to pucker and thirst for more. Inner florals resonate over salty tension with a twang of grapefruit rind and savory spice. Wow, this is a hold-onto-your-seat expression of Sauvignon that’s sure to have a lot of fans.
