2020 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc
To achieve both bright acid and a weighty mouthfeel, our Sauvignon Blanc grapes come from two superb sites. Oak Knoll brings zesty citrus;, while sunny St. Helena provides a core of ripe fruit. A combination of stainless steel fermentation with a small percentage barrel fermented results in a luscious, textural mouthfeel and bracing minerality for which classic Sauv Blancs are known.

This wine is deal with classic matches like fresh seafood and grilled veggies, but the touch of sweetness and crisp acidity balances out spice and fats, making this a great match for kimchi-jjigae, a spicy Korean stew.

None of the lots went through malolactic fermentation as our goal was to capture freshness. We created texture and complexity through careful aging in neutral French oak.
Our Vision
Hand-picked grapes sourced from two growing appellations; Oak Knoll and St. Helena. Fermenting the majority in stainless steel brought the fruit flavors to the forefront, but a small portion was barrel fermented in neutral French oak to create a rounder mouthfeel. Frequent bâtonnage or “stirring of the lees” achieved beautiful texture.
