2022 Sauvignon Blanc, Sonoma County
New Release!
The 2022 SB is reminiscent of previous vintages with aromas that are steely with river rock and flint and accompanied by lemon peel, hay, coriander, green mango and green apple. The flavors are full with green apple, pineapple, nectarine, hay and coriander. The wine adds some creaminess from the barrel age on lees that balances off the higher acidity.

Tasting Notes
The 2022 SB is reminiscent of previous vintages with aromas that are steely with river rock and flint and accompanied by lemon peel, hay, coriander, green mango and green apple. The flavors are full with green apple, pineapple, nectarine, hay and coriander. The wine adds some creaminess from the barrel age on lees that balances off the higher acidity. This wine will actually benefit from a few months aging.

Winemaker Notes
As fans of the style of the late Didier Dagueneau of Pouilly Fumé and his wines, we choose to barrel ferment our SB. While tank ferments make nice fruity wines, we like the texture and complexity we achieve with barrel fermentation.
