Sequoia Grove Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc is crafted for texture and aromatic purity. This wine reflects maritime sub AVAs, anchored by the Oak Knoll District and the renowned Ryans Vineyard: this site provides electric acidity and mineral clarity. The remaining fruit comes from the wind-swept hills of Carneros for a citrus-driven backbone. The grapes are whole-cluster pressed and undergo native fermentation in French oak and stainless steel barrels. To build density, the wine undergoes five months of bâtonnage and eight months of aging on fine lees. The inclusion of Sauvignon Musqué (a clonal variant of Sauvignon Blanc prized for its floral intensity and weight) adds tropical complexity and a silken mouthfeel.

Tasting Note

Aromatic lemon verbena, white peach, and floral notes lead to a crisp attack. The textured midpalate features juicy lemon, passion fruit, and guava. Lightly creamy weight balances mouthwatering acidity, finishing with flinty mineral notes, limestone, and fresh lime zest.

Food Pairing

Pair with seafood, tangy cheeses, spring vegetables or aromatic Asian cuisine like Thai or Vietnamese
