The 2023 Shared Notes Les Pierres Qui Decident (translated: the rocks that decide) is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc from Merino Vineyard in Russian River Valley. The Les Pierres Qui Decident is a stunning expression of this old-world varietal, and one of the most distinctive produced from California. The color immediately expresses the wine showing purity, pale yellow that sparkles in the glass. The aromas lead you on an enticing journey of lush tropical fruit, sea salt and mouthwatering stone minerality. The flavors are rarely achieved in producing 100% Sauvignon Blanc in California combining energy, concentration and delicacy. The palate is plush, driven by juicy citrus fruit, creamy lemon curd and a chalky texture that coats the mouth finishing laser focused and long with lively acidity and minerality. The 2023 Shared Notes Les Pierres Qui Decident Sauvignon Blanc is so delicious now, especially if you let it aerate before serving. The flavors expand, adding volume and balance, leading you to a thoroughly memorable experience. This is phenomenal winemaking from Bibiana Gonzalez Rave Pisoni and Jeff Pisoni.
