Notes & Flavors
Fruit for our Sauvignon Blanc, principally sourced from our historic St. Helena estate, was hand-picked in the cool of night to ensure it reached the winery in pristine condition. The freshly picked grapes were cold-soaked on the skins for 6-8 hours, before going to press, a process that enhances the fruit’s natural aromatics. The wine was cold fermented slowly in stainless steel tanks to further its wonderfully aromatic bouquet and delicate flavor profile. This light to medium-bodied wine displays vibrant, finely balanced acidity with notes of lime and grapefruit on the nose and flavors of citrus and passion fruit on the palate.
90 Points, Wine Enthusiast
“This is a stainless-steel fermented white made in large quantities that hits the mark in its candied perfume of peach and apricot. Lively and crisp, it retains a wealth of high-toned acidity and brightness throughout.”
