2014 Sandlands Trousseau - USA, California, Sonoma County, Sonoma Coast (7/20/2019)
I finally figured out how to wait a little while before ordering a bottle of Sandlands. I misplaced this one, and thought I had none left. Trousseau is not a grape I think about cellaring, as I enjoy the bright, fresh red fruit of its youth. A tiny bit of cellar time left the red fruit intact, but polished the texture. The initial attack was very silky, and it was only on the finish that the wine took on a more acid-driven style. It went from caressing to refreshing in the same mouthful. Interesting wine. I hope I misplaced another bottle.
