As with other wines where I had the chance to taste the 2015 and 2016 versions side by side, the 2016 Sauzal Vineyard is more elegant and has more finesse and a nice texture, and even if the tannins are there, the quality is amazing. 2016 was not an easy year; it was challenging, but they picked these grapes two days before the rain. It’s very fresh, and analytically, it has a lot of acidity. This is just great. 1,901 bottles were filled in November 2017. It’s lot #75.
