Jonata - Flor 2016

The Wine Advocate: "The 2016 La Flor de Jonata, a blend of Sauvignon Blanc with 12% Sémillon that was bottled in September 2017 and will be released in the fall, wafts from the glass with notes of peach, gooseberry, spice, spring flowers and passion fruit. On the palate, the wine is medium to full-bodied, with a textural attack, bright acids and a crunchy core of fruit that boasts considerable intensity and an almost chewy sense of extract."

Jeb Dunnuck: "Readers wanting to see how exotic and perfumed Sauvignon Blanc can be need to check out the 2016 Flor from this terrific Ballard Canyon-based estate. A blend of 88% Sauvignon Blanc and 12% Semillon, this beauty is always crazily perfumed, and the 2016 gives up a huge nose of Meyer lemons, quince, candied orange peels, and exotic flowers. With medium body, vibrant acidity, and ample fruit, it´s another juicy, racy, singular wine from this team. There´s nothing else out there like it."
