Winemaker’s Notes:

Our 2009 Sauvignon Blanc is a vivacious white wine brimming with fresh citrus, honeydew melon, fig and creamy vanilla aromas, coupled with vibrant melon, lemon-lime, white grapefruit and mineral flavors. Boasting a long, racy finish with bright mineral tones and a touch of pineapple, it shines both as a mouthwatering aperitif and as a zesty companion to shellfish, sautéed mixed vegetables, garden salads, lighter seafood and poultry dishes, and tangy goat cheeses. Fresh and delightful on release, it will fully blossom over the next 18-24 months.
