Winemakers Notes: This grape that hails originally from the Campania region of Central Italy grows beautifully in Northern California and produces a crisp white with perfumey aromatics. Fermented and aged entirely in neutral oak barrels to add texture and depth, this wine will appeal to Sauvignon Blanc lovers looking to explore something new with a Caprese salad or simply prepared white fish with lemon, garlic and parsley. Tasting Notes: "This wine offers rich, bright aromas of yellow apple, green papaya and pink grapefruit zest on the nose. The midpalate has flavors of pineapple, kaffir lime and green apple gliding into sedimentary rock, mineral and a dry finish. Pair with halibut crudo. 92 points." — Tonya Pitts, Wine Enthusiast Vineyard: Lost Slough Vineyard, nestled in the heart of the Clarksburg AVA, lies on land that was once beneath the sea, imparting a distinctive saline minerality to its wines. The vineyard’s shallow clay loam soils, scattered with ancient seashells, force vines to struggle, yielding intensely flavorful fruit. Cooled by the famed Delta Breeze and lingering coastal fog, this unique microclimate allows for slow, even ripening, resulting in wines of remarkable balance, freshness, and depth. |
