Sauvignon Blanc 2024
Trade Tools
America / Paso Robles
From Paso Robles the heart of California's Central Coast, which see a longer growing season than Napa characterized by warm, sunny days and cool, clear nights. This wine is picked at two different ripeness levels to build layers of flavors. The early harvest brings tangy acidity and herbaceous notes, and the later harvest imparts tropical aromatics. The wine is fermented at low temperatures and bottled fresh to capture the aromas and flavours of the vintage.

Harvest Note
The 2024 growing season began with a mild winter with above average rain and temperature, which led to an early bud break in March. Spring temperatures were generally cool with some late spring frost in April and early May which led to low yields for the vintage. As the season progressed, growers benefitted from consistent warm weather during the summer months, which helped develop the grapes' characteristic flavor profiles.
Tasting Note
Aromas of lime zest and pink grapefruit. This wine is bright and crisp with vibrant fruit, restrained alcohol and zesty acidity.
