TASTING NOTES

The grapes were grown at the end of the Dry Creek Valley where Dry Creek meets the Russian River and where the conditions are much cooler than the rest of the valley. The grapes were then pressed as whole clusters to preserve the maximum fruitiness and the delicacy of the Sauvignon Blanc. Cold fermentation and no oak treatment ensured that more of the lemon, melon and pear aromas are preserved without the interference of wood. Post fermentation, the wine was aged on yeast lees and occasionally mixed for further complexity. The wine is supple, refreshing, balanced and finishes long and juicy.
