2023 Red Mountain Sauvignon Blanc
340 cases made
Our 2023 Red Mountain Sauvignon Blanc an ideal example of a perfectly balanced Red Mountain white wine—rich and full on the midpalate, bright tropical fruit flavors balanced with crisp mouthwatering acidity. The vineyard sourcing blends a newer, but well known, extremely warm growing site in Quintessence with the more established and slightly cooler Artz vineyard plantings from the early 1980’s. The result and complex and delicious expression of Sauvignon Blanc. On the aroma we get pear, honeydew, and lemon pith. The palate is full yet crisp and refreshing — white peach, pineapple, and grapefruit.

Production Notes
Our Sauvignon Blanc is hand-picked, pressed, cold-settled for 48 hours, and then racked mostly directly into barrels and fermented at low temperatures. The juice spends 8 months on lees, occasionally stirred based on taste and smell.
