2021 Morlet Family Vineyards 'La Proportion Dorée' White Blend Sonoma County
Bright yellow. Intense bouquet of candied lemon, muscat, and honeysuckle flavors intermixed with sweet notes of ripened apricot and fresh quince. Full-bodied, seamless, refined and complex.

The 2021 ‘La Proportion Dorée’ 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. Medium to full-bodied, its structure offers fantastic definition, and it has a concentrated, rich texture, an even spine of acidity, and exceptional length. A stunning textural blend to enjoy over the coming 10-12 years. -
Wine Advocate
Potentially one of the most profound Sauvignon Blanc-based wines I have tasted from California, the 2021 ‘La Proportion Dorée’ boasts explosive aromas of cut grass, gooseberries, tangerines and pink grapefruit. A barrel-fermented—in previously used French oak—blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Sémillon and Muscadelle, it's medium to full-bodied and lush, with enormous richness and concentration and a potent, lingering finish.
