About This Wine
Screaming Eagle's Sauvignon Blanc comes from a small plot on the Oakville estate. The 2014 is fresh and citrus-driven, and it was the third release since the white was introduced in 2012.
The grapes come from a small block in the north-west corner of the vineyard, planted in 2006.
Tasting Profile
- Nose: White flowers, white peach, lemon and pomelo, with a light touch of oak.
- Palate: Fresh and juicy, with bright citrus, stone fruit and a textured feel.
- Finish: Clean and crisp, with lingering citrus.
Serving & Food
Serve at 10 to 12°C in a white Burgundy-style glass so the oak-framed texture can show. Good with Hokkaido scallop crudo or steamed prawns with ginger.
Good to Know
How much is made? Tiny amounts, around 50 cases at the start.
Is acid added? No, not since 2005.
