Tropical & fresh with aromas with peach and passion fruit, balanced with citrus, loads of lime and grapefruit, and hints of green apple. The palate offers more citrus and tropical flavors with a nice beam of acidity throughout.
The location of this Sauvignon Blanc vineyard experiences a nice warm temperature during the day, which allows the grapes to ripen, providing the bright tones on the nose and the palate. At night, the vineyard cools off dramatically, preserving the natural acidity, and contributing to the freshness of this varietal.
The grapes are hand harvested, and the juice was cold-fermented in neutral oak barrels, which allows the fermentation to 'breathe', an important component for aromatic and texture development. The finished wine was aged in the same barrel for six months prior to bottling.

Big & Jammy!
Aromas and robust flavors of dark cherry, blackberries, mocha, espresso and hints of black pepper. Incredibly balanced with a smooth mouthfeel and body against a backdrop of structured tannins. The wine unfolds with notes of clove and dried herbs, ending with a long rich finish.
Rich & Luxurious!
Beautiful ruby color and opens with aromas of bright red plum and raspberry, cassis, and a touch of mint. The tannins are soft yet structured, and complemented by vibrant acidity, with hints of clove and baking spice from the oak aging. The wine ends with a long, smooth finish and lingering intensity encouraging you to enjoy another juicy sip.
