About the wine: We source our fruit from the Clear Lake AVA. Sauvignon Blanc is the area’s flagship varietal as it grows beautifully in the region’s sunshine & clean mountain air. This AVA is located only an hour and a half North from downtown Napa and surrounds Clear Lake, which is the largest freshwater lake in CA. Vineyards range from 1,300 - 1,500 feet, and the soils are mainly sandy loam. We produced our Sauvignon Blanc in a New Zealand style, meaning it displays incredible vibrancy and a sharp acidity. Once we received the Sauvignon Blanc grapes in Oceanside, we destemmed & pressed it here on site. The juice then fermented in a stainless steel tank. We bottled the wine in May 2024.
Tasting Notes: Crisp and lively acidity enhances flavors of lemon zest, green apple and ripe guava. The wine offers a refreshing mouthfeel with a subtle herbal undertone. The finish is clean, leaving a lingering impression of citrus and a hint of minerality.
Food Pairings: Pair with herb-driven sauces over chicken, tofu or fish. Oysters with a lemon aioli sauce or shrimp skewers would also be great pairings. Warm goats cheese salad.
