Tasting Note
Crisp, mineral-driven Sauvignon Blanc: citrus zest, white peach, lemongrass, subtle blackcurrant bud and gunflint smoke, with saline, persistent finish and medium-plus body.

Food Pairing

Production Method
Hand-harvested; practicing organic; fermented with indigenous yeasts in stainless-steel tanks; no malolactic fermentation; aged on fine lees for balance.

Vineyard Info
