2014 Sauvignon Blanc, Sonoma County

Double Gold Medal – S.F. Chronicle Wine Competition - 2016

Tasting Notes
This enticing Sauvignon Blanc offers aromas of white peach, cantaloupe, and orange blossom complemented by bright citrus notes of lemon curd and zest.  Tropical flavors of kiwi, pineapple, lemon, mango and papaya introduce a rich palate and a persistent mineral finish. A great aperitif, this pairs nicely with just about any seafood dish, and is a great companion with hard cheeses.

Vineyards
The 2014 Somoma County vintage was sourced from a small high-end producer located in the eastern slop of the Sonoma Valley known as Fallenleaf Vineyard. This vineyard possesses unique varietal character that showcases the essence of a "Sonoma County" Sauvignon Blanc.

Winemaking
Grapes were picked in the early morning hours, and went immediately to press and chilled to preserve freshness.  The grape juice was immediately inoculated with yeast and nutrients to finish the primary fermentation in tank and hand selected neutral French Oak barrels at carefully controlled temperatures.

Dark ruby red in the glass, and good swirl on the nose offers generous aromatics of cassis, black cherry and spice.  Generously oaked, with crushed blackberry, baked plums, baking spices, and Turkish fig.
