Cliff Lede Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley
From USA
Description: | Vintage the 2016 vintage was the last in a series of several dry and warm winters here in napa valley. The dry winter was followed by a warm frost free spring. This led to an early bud break in our white varietals setting the stage for an early vintage that progressed at a leisurely pace due to moderate temperatures throughout most of the remaining growing season. Crop levels were slightly below average due to dry conditions and a cool weather spell during flowering. The dry soils led to low vigor vines and small berries creating very concentrated fruit. With lovely summer weather it was our earliest harvest on record and our white grapes were all in the winery by september 3rd. Vineyards our sauvignon blanc is a lively yet elegant expression of this varietal in napa valley. The primary vineyard source located in eastern rutherford is home to old vines planted to a heritage musque clone and semillon providing density richness and citrus notes.
