Wine Advocate
The 2014 Brown Blanc seemed to have lost a little of its nascent complexity and mineralité on the nose: pleasant but missing grape varietal expression compared to its showing from barrel. The palate is better with citrus peel and white peach on the entry, a fine bead of acidity and an attractive, subtle spiciness conferred upon the finish. Drink this over the next five or six years.
Winery Notes
2014 was a richly-coloured vintage, even for the white wines. BROWN White 2014 boasts the pronounced floral scents of lovely ripe Semillon grapes, good sugar content and high acidity, despite the warm end to the season. The wine is very fleshy and fresh with the vivacious, salty edge of the Sauvignon Blanc that will make this 2014 a delight for some years to come, for its purity and aromatic range.
