A harmonious blend of the three classic white Bordeaux varietals, this unique cuvee was inspired from the finest producers of Pessac-Leognan. The Semillon, Sauvignon Blanc and Muscadelle come from dry-farmed vineyards in the Golden State's Sonoma County. Classical winemaking techniques such as elevage sur lies (aging on the lees) and batonnage (stirring) contribute to this true vin de garde.

The 2021 La Proportion Doree pours a bright yellow color and takes on another gear in the glass, cascading open with generous aromas of fresh currants, candle wax, jasmine, and a lift of white pepper spice.

This is a stunning textural blend. | 99 points, Audrey Frick for jebdunnuck.com
