This blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Sémillon was fermented entirely in puncheons and aged in 30% new French oak. Ganzin represents the Reserve tier of AXR’s Sauvignon Blanc programme, named for vine breeder Victor Ganzin, who established the AXR1 rootstock in 1879. A clear step up from the Napa-level bottling, it shows greater tension and precision, with a vivid spectrum of citrus fruit (lemon and lime peel) layered with white flowers, honeysuckle, and subtle honeycomb, alongside a hint of beeswax. The palate is savoury and citrus-driven, finishing long and mineral, with crushed Marcona almond notes dusted with pink Himalayan sea salt.
