This Sauvignon Blanc wine is aromatic, complex and concentrated, and perfectly demonstrates the unique terroir of the rocky vineyard site from which it hails.
TASTING NOTES: The nose of this wine immediately envelops the taster in ripe fruit aromas of grapefruit, ripe lemons and green apple, beautifully complemented by notes of honeysuckle and lime leaf. On the palate, the wine is concentrated and long: grapefruit, lemon, lime, and guava, with a soft, creamy mouthfeel from lees-aging, finishing with a subtle hint of white pepper. Dry, with an electric acidity that will pair beautifully with food, this is a complex Sauvignon Blanc that drinks deliciously now but has the ability to age.
BODY: Light
FOOD PAIRING: Crisp, juicy, refreshing: this is a wine that is easy to enjoy by itself but pairs wonderfully with roast poultry and soft cheeses, and is a knock-out with all kinds of seafood.
WINEMAKING NOTES: The grapes for this wine were harvested by hand at peak maturity. The berries were lightly crushed, soaked on the skins for 4 hours under dry ice, and then pressed. The juice was lightly settled before fermentation and then fermented in a combination of stainless steel tanks and French oak puncheons. The wine was aged on the lees, with weekly lees stirring, for 5 months prior to bottling. Minimal, gentle handling of the wine in every stage of the production process was the key to preserving and showcasing the natural beauty of the fruit.
