Cellar/Tasting Notes
Exotic White
Powerful aromas of green apple, tangerine zest and honeysuckle. Core flavors of apricot, melon, pear and light vanilla are beautifully balanced by the sparkling acidity of citrus fruits. The lush, creamy, mouth-filling texture leads to a full, powerful finish.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"This is a lovely Sauvignon that opens with huge aromatic intensity and flavors of stone fruit, chopped basil and citrus. Expressive and bright, it’s true to the semi-aromatic variety..."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"... Reverdy’s 2011 Sancerre Cuvee Les Coutes delivers an almost sweet impression of lime and Persian melon garlanded with freesia and lily. Black currant, sage, and nettle add pungency to this very ripe melange... This generous, luscious 2011 finishes with outstanding, multifaceted length..."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
"Fully mature, with a creamy, fresh butter edge to its peach, plantain, almond and melon notes. Lush finish has a lightly nutty edge but stays pure and defined, with hints of heather and beeswax. A lovely example of the mature style."

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Mouthwatering
Due to the coolness of the vintage, this is an especially fresh, crisp and vibrant Sauvignon Blanc, offering bright honeydew melon, pink grapefruit, gooseberry and vanilla aromas and rich, mouthwatering citrus, nectarine and melon flavors.

Cellar/Tasting Notes
Sophisticated and polished, reflecting its mature, low-yield vines. the aroma is bursting with lychee fruit, fig and ripe pear. Finish has creamy oak, with just a touch of minerality.

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate (RP):
"The 2010 Poggio alle Gazze is an attractive Sauvignon laced with sweet white peaches, pears and sage. Winemaker Axel Heinz uses some batonnage, which gives the wine lovely textural depth and richness, even though malolactic fermentation is blocked...
