Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Aveta Sauvignon Blanc Napa

Vintage: 2021
Description: Our estate vineyard located adjacent to the Napa River in the Oak Knoll District provided the majority of the fruit (70%) for this wine. The other 30% was sourced from the Rancho Chimiles vineyard, just over the hill in the warm and clear reaches of Wooden Valley. Our estate vineyard brings spicy peach, guava and grapefruit notes to the mix while the Rancho Chimiles Sauvignon grapes lend racy citrus, tropical fruit and mineral notes to the wine. Our long-time grower Terry Wilson farms Sauvignon Blanc and Sauvignon Musque at Rancho Chimiles for this wine. The juice was fermented at cool temperatures in a mix of neutral French oak barrels and stainless steel tanks. The wine was aged on light lees for six and a half months, providing some roundness to the wine's texture.
