Tasting note
Delicious Sauvignon Blanc, all lemons and butter, from this legendary Napa Valley winery: a mouthful of mango, blackcurrant and gooseberry, with a citrus bouquet enhanced by a hint of herb.
Viticulture
Primarily from our Danika Ranch estate and Rancho Chimiles vineyards, complemented by select Napa Valley vineyards like Beckstoffer Melrose and Solari. Danika Ranch adds spicy peach, guava, and grapefruit, while Rancho Chimiles brings citrus, tropical fruit, and minerals, grown by our dedicated partner Terry Wilson.
Vinification
The juice was fermented at cool temperatures in a mix of stainless steel (45%) and neutral French oak barrels (55%). The wine was aged on light lees for six months and was stirred every two weeks, providing some roundness to the wine’s texture.
Food Match
Grilled oysters with mignonette sauce, grilled prosciutto-wrapped shrimp, fresh fish ceviche with cilantro.
