The 2019 La Flor Costa Sauvignon Blanc was produced with grapes from San Antonio (of which Leyda is a sub-appellation) on the coastal mountain range 20 kilometers away from the ocean, where the soils are rich in granite. It fermented mostly in stainless steel, with 20% of the volume fermented in concrete egg. It was kept with the lees for four months. It has aromas of white flowers and citrus with the austerity of the granite, which is already noticeable on the nose as well as in the texture and the linear, clean palate. This wine is certified organic and they work biodynamically. It ends dry and with an almost salty twist. 2019 was a warmer year, more in the style of 2017. This is a new wine that started in 2018. 12,000 bottles produced. It was bottled in July 2019.
Robert Parker – The Wine AdvocateStraw green color. Fruity aromas of fresh cut grass, summer peach, and ripe papaya with a silky, lively, dry-yet-fruity light body and a smooth, captivating, medium-length lychee, diced green pepper, and passion fruit finish with no oak. A vibrant, energetic sauvignon blanc with intense, juicy flavor.
