Harvest 2012 -First Sauv blanc juice evaluation


On friday we tasted 14 Sauvignon Blanc juice samples from fruit Marti and Gery had picked Thursday. Tasting fruit at this stage immaturity is  a challenge .  The juices are almost too tart to taste.    At this point, around 16% sugar, the concentration of the compounds responsible for the green flavor notes in SB are at their highest. The passion fruit, lime  and stone fruit  aromas wiil start to develop now.  We found almost no bell pepper or Jalapeno aromas in the juices. This is a good sign!   We will  follow up in  week.
