Purlieu Le Pich Sauvignon Blanc

Vintage: 2020
Description: Winemaker Notes\r\nVibrant, juicy and sleek, the 2002 vintage of Le Pich Sauvignon Blanc delivers spectacular fruit quality and loads of charisma. The nose blossoms with tangy passionfruit and creamy guava notes, enriched with dried pineapple and a subtle minerality. Juicy nectarine, sweet key lime, and the warmth of dried ginger shine on the palate, with cool stony undertones to ground them. Playful, slippery textures and bright acidity carry the wine to a long, clean finish of mandarin, citrus zest and white pepper.\r\nAbout Purlieu\r\nPurlieu in the literal sense means \u201cthe edge of the forest\u201d or \u201can outlying area.\u201d Symbolically, \u201cpurlieu\u201d refers to our approach to winemaking, to exploring the outskirts and navigating the boundaries of what one may expect of a Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. For us, the key to successfully walking that edge lies in maintaining balance: between innovation and tradition, confidence and restraint, depth and refreshment.\r\nWith more than two decades of winemaking expertise, Julien Fayard is one of Napa Valley\u2019s most respected winemakers producing California varietals with French finesse. He believes in producing wines with an identity, exploiting what makes each one unique. Julien\u2019s wines are a pure expression of their terroir, highlighting the specificities and characteristics of the fruit, vineyard management, soil and climate.\r\n\r\n
