Melka Estates, Knights Valley (Sonoma County, California) 2017

Mar 16, 2021

By Miranda Franco

 Made up of 100% Sauvignon Blanc, the 2017 Mekerra Proprietary White is a blockbuster from the world-class Philippe Melka.  It gives gorgeous and seductive aromas of white peaches, lemon, fresh pears, honeysuckle, and toasted almonds.  The palate is medium to full-bodied with a rich texture and layers of stone fruit and tropical flavors.  This ethereal wine is well-balanced, seamless, and structured with a long and lingering finish.
