Winemaker Description - 2024 From the first swirl, this Sauvignon Blanc captivates with aromas of candied pineapple and guava, layered with a delicate flourish of key lime blossom. On the palate, vibrant notes of fresh melon take center stage, balanced by a lively acidity that lends energy and precision. A silky texture carries the wine to a focused finish, where a hint of minerality adds intrigue and finesse. Crisp, expressive and beautifully crafted, this wine is a stunning reflection of North Coast Sauvignon Blanc. The 2024 growing season began with abundant winter rainfall, revitalizing the vines for a strong start. Ideal weather during bud break and bloom fostered a generous crop, while above average temperatures in June and July encouraged vibrant vine growth and consistent berry ripening. Dynamic weather patterns throughout summer brought alternating warm and cool periods late into the season, with moderate September temperatures fostering balanced sugars and vibrant acidity.
