Merry Edwards Sauvignon Blanc 2023
Merry Edwards Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant, richly textured and deeply aromatic white from one of California's most celebrated pioneering estates. Fermented entirely in French oak and aged on lees for six months, this is a Sauvignon Blanc of real complexity, weight and distinction, a world away from the crisp, unoaked style and all the better for it. Why You'll Love It Merry Edwards has been a pioneering Californian winemaker since 1977, blending scientific expertise with artistic vision. Renowned for her clonal research, her UCD37 Merry Edwards Selection has been a benchmark in the Russian River Valley since 1975. Certified Sustainable since 2017 and entirely vegan-friendly, the estate employs environmentally conscious viticulture, cover crops, insect-friendly flower borders, deficit irrigation and full recycling of green waste. This Sauvignon Blanc is the white wine expression of that same commitment to quality and place. Vineyard & Production Grapes are grown sustainably across carefully managed Russian River Valley vineyards, with meticulous soil management and water conservation. The wine is fermented entirely in French oak barrels, 18% new from Cadus, and aged with biweekly lees stirring for six months, building texture, richness and mouthfeel while preserving the variety's vibrant aromatic character. Tasting Notes Golden-green in colour with an aromatic nose of tangerine, guava, honeydew, cantaloupe, white blossom and marzipan. On the palate, sweet oak balances crisp acidity, while a juicy finish delivers a hint of zesty grapefruit. Rich, layered and beautifully composed. Perfect Pairings A natural partner for rich seafood dishes, grilled lobster, scallops and black cod. Also excellent with Thai and Asian-spiced dishes, soft cheeses and roasted chicken. A classic match for Kaffir lime and coconut soup with black cod. The Blend Sauvignon Blanc Shenandoah 65%, Sauvignon Musque 35%
Royal Tokaji Betsek Primae Classis 6 Puttonyos (50cl) 2017
This wonderfully complex dessert wine has plentiful honey, peach and allspice aromas. Grapefruit notes on the luscious palate add a refreshing note of piquancy to layers of vanilla, peach and orange peel flavours.
