Tasting notes
The 2018 On The White Keys Artists Reserve is a Sauvignon Blanc/Sémillon blend that gets ten more months in barrel than the straight On The White Keys. Fresh, vibrant and wonderfully translucent, the 2018 has so much going on. Crushed rocks, slate, tangerine oil, mint and apricot are some of the many aromas and flavors that start to emerge with a bit of air. I would cellar the 2018 for another year or two. It is a gorgeous and distinctive wine in every way.

The 2018 On The White Keys is bright, precise and wonderfully nuanced. Orange peel, mint, apricot and light tropical notes all develop in the glass in this nuanced Sauvignon Blanc/Sémillon blend. The 2018 stands out for its tension - this is a wine built on precision and total class; it is one of the better vintages I can remember tasting.
