2022 Napa Valley Estate Sauvignon Blanc (2 bottles)
Vibrant, fresh and expressive, this Sauvignon Blanc showcases tremendous aromas of green lime and grapefruit with a citrus drive and a thread of caper and anise. Pink grapefruit flavors follow with exotic guava and bright lime zest, while accented with a nuance of fennel, all beautifully balanced with refreshing crisp acidity.
2022 Dollarhide Estate Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc (2 bottles)
Brilliant hues of pale yellow and green present this white wine. Fresh aromas of grapefruit, kiwi, and fennel are intertwined with a vanillin thread, evidence of the element of subtle new French oak. Yellow grapefruit and lime zest flavors follow with the essence of ripe pear, while the toasted oak qualities of the barrel maturation have encouraged a round, rich mouth feel, along with the subtle creaminess of the sur-lie maturation. This is a crisp yet rich flavorful Sauvignon Blanc.
2022 Dollarhide Estate Vineyard Cold Concrete Fermented Sauvignon Blanc (2 bottles)
After achieving the desired flavors on the vine, the Sauvignon Blanc was harvested in the cool morning hours in an effort to preserve the delicate flavors. The fruit was received in the cellar, where the grapes were pressed to tank and immediately chilled and settled prior to fermentation. Fermentation occurred in concrete tank exclusively at cool temperatures to maintain and enhance the natural flavors. The final blend was completed after 4 months of sur-lies maturation to capture the lovely fresh qualities and intensity of flavor of the sauvignon blanc.
