Halleck Vineyards - 2006(W-1111)

Halleck Vineyards
Tangy, Zesty

Winery Story

As winemaker Greg Lafollette expressed years ago in Halleck Vineyards, a great wine starts with good bones on which a winemaker can then han... (more...)g things. Their vineyard managers use a variety of farming techniques to accomplish just that. They choose vineyards based on the specific clones, site location and flavor profiles historically produced from them. They consistently spend time within the rows, paying attention to the subtleties of the vines, the architecture of the clusters, the diurnal fluctuation of the leaves, and the texture and flavor development of the seeds as they macerate them in their mouths.

Tasting Note

This refreshing Sancerre-style Sauvignon Blanc has a nose that hints of starfruit, kiwi skins, wet river stones and exotic tropical fruit. T... (more...)he color is pale straw. The crisp, palate-cleansing mouthfeel, filled with citrus and minerals, is nicely integrated from front to back with a long, lingering finish.

We liked this a lot. Crisp, not too dry and not too floral
