tasting notes

The 2007 Cliff Lede Sauvignon Blanc has aromas of mock-orange blossom, passion fruit, green ginger, and white pepper upon layers of almonds, tarragon-citrus, pomegranate, and Lily-of-the-Valley. The mouth perpetuates this duplicity, with citrus-driven flavors of peach liquor, honeyed lime, and white currant toying playfully with the dry nutty fatness of candied ginger and creamy marzipan.
