13' Melka La Mekerra Vineyard. 97% SB done in 100% new oak. This will age like a good Cabernet/ Red Blend. So good. Decant for 30 minutes. Highly recommend.

13' Melka Proprietary White. Mekerra 97% SB 2300 feet high on Knights Valley. Decant & serve at cellar temperature. Lemon Zest on the nose. Chunkiness,, tropical flavors (PEACH ,NECTARINES)with light citrusy notes. Loving this. It's got another 10+ years in it.

Comparing the 2013 to 2018:
2013 97% Sauvignon Blanc 3% Muscadelle
2018 100% Sauvignon Blanc
2013 more stone fruit peach, apricot and nectarine
2018 peach, lemon, spice, flower
Preferred the purity of the 2018

One of the best SB's I have ever had. One hell of a nose! Good petrol! So much balance and complexity. This is a home run...then I saw the price, ugh

One of my favorite Sauvignon Blancs. Tropical flavors of pineapple and coconut. Well balanced and oh so enjoyable.
