Ricardo Santos, Sémillon 2010, a richer vintage of this outstanding single vineyard


Seleccion Ricardo Santos, Single Vineyard Semillon 2010, USD 15
This Lunlunta district (Maipu Dpt, Central Mendoza) single vineyard shows more fruit shifted palette. The melon and white peach are striking. The complexity is wider than 09 vintage with an edge of herbal citrus, and soft minerality.A buttery toach present too. A 94 points white. Probably the top only-Semillon white. Finca La Anita Sémillon (Agreglo district,Lujan de Cuyo Dpt) goes quite close on the spotlight.


Tasted same time with Spy Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2010, marlborough, NZ : 90 pts

    Are you paying more than $5 per pack of cigs? I'm buying all my cigarettes over at Duty Free Depot and I save over 50%.
