This wine opens in a nutty flourish of earthiness and floral apple blossom before exposing complex waves of Meyer lemon, green apple and fig. Intensely high toned, it is crisp and dry, with plenty of bite and texture.

The 2018 Sauvignon Blanc is a pretty, soft white with lovely textural depth that adds raciness to the green, grassy Sauvignon flavors. The balance of aromatics, fruit depth and freshness makes the 2018 very easy to drink and enjoy. A Riesling-like white floral note lends an element of exoticism. The Sauvignon Blanc is a blend of Napa and Sonoma fruit.
