The 2021 vintage finds us with a solid expression of sauvignon blanc from Paso Robles’s Ancient Peaks, notes of elderflower and lemon doing the heavy lifting, with hints of grapefruit and a touch of cantaloupe adding a little nuance. Slight floral notes emerge on the finish. Easy-drinking, perhaps to a fault, it’s a wine that could benefit from a bit more acidity, but which offers plenty of versatility for weeknight sips as it stands.
