Chateau Ste. Michelle, Horse Heaven Hills (Washington) Sauvignon Blanc Horse Heaven Vineyard 2010

($15):  Chateau Ste. Michelle touts their single vineyard wines, such as this one, as distinctive wines from a single site.  That’s surely the case with this Sauvignon Blanc.  Layers of citrus notes, herbal nuances and green apple vivacity make this an unusually complex Sauvignon Blanc.  It doesn’t grab you by the lapels and scream in your face, but rather grabs your attention little by little as the flavors unfold.  It’s an extraordinary $15 wine. 90 Michael Apstein Aug 16, 2011
