Sauvignon Blanc from Napa Valley
| Vintage: | 2017 |

| Description: | Cliff Lede sources their Sauvignon Blanc primarily from an old vine plot in eastern Rutherford. The grapes were harvested and sorted by hand, and a portion was allowed some limited skin contact after crush in order to fully realize the potential of this quality fruit. The wine was fermented in a combination of 58% French oak barrels, 37% stainless steel tanks, and 5% concrete eggs. The wine was then aged on the lees with weekly stirring, but malolactic fermentation was surpressed. Winemaker Notes: "The delectably bright and balanced 2017 Sauvignon Blanc is resplendent in a sea of citrus aromas and flavors. Meyer lemon, key lime, ruby grapefruit, and kumquat notes are lusciously entwined in the bouquet as well as in the flavors. As the wine opens in the glass, those citrus elements find further complexity with touches of pie crust, coconut, honeyed quince, and Thai basil. This charming wine is imbued with a bright acidity and a long, rich full bodied texture.". |
