| Description: | From Peay Vineyards\r\nRussian River Valley\r\nTasting Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nThe 2020 Sauvignon Blanc Hopkins Ranch offers delicate floral perfume on the nose with touches of taragon and fresh orchard fruits. The light-bodied palate is gently rounded and very fresh, with a mineral undertone and crisp, uplifted finish.\r\n\r\n\r\nCep Wines -A True Second Label\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nWe drink wine every night. You have to eat dinner, no? Occasionally, we want something that is delicious with some complexity but does not cost an arm and a leg. It is hard to find that. Into the void enters Cep Vineyards\u2019 wines.\r\nCep Pinot noir and Syrah are made solely from barrels of Peay Vineyards\u2019 estate wines that through the blending process were not selected for a Peay Pinot noir or Syrah. We always make the Peay wines without knowing the production amounts of various potential blends. That way we focus exclusively on quality and do not consider financial implications when determining which wines will make the cut. This may mean we bottle only 70-80% of what we grow and make under the Peay label. It is the price of ensuring Peay wines meet our and your quality standards. The remaining barrels of wine \u2013 grown and made using the same exacting processes and standards as they are intended for Peay bottlings - become Cep wines.\r\nA few years ago, we got the itch to make Ros\u00e9 and Sauvignon Blanc and discovered a vineyard in the Russian River Valley \u2013 Hopkins - where we could make fresh, bright, and crisp wines and added them to the Pinot noir and Syrah we make under the Cep label. These wines are similar in spirit and intention to Peay wines.\r\nWe don\u2019t make very many bottles of any of the wines and they are priced to be enjoyed without too much fuss and wringing of hands over cost. We hope they frequent your table in between bottles of Peay. |
