Wine Notes

This Sauvignon Blanc is a beautifully expressive wine, bursting with fresh and lively aromas that capture the essence of the 2022 growing season.

On the nose you’ll immediately notice the unmistakable scent of freshly cut grass, followed by a delightful hint of tangerines & zesty lime peel.

The palate is equally impressive with a backbone of wet limestone minerality and juicy notes of apricot that perfectly balances the vibrant acidity.

As you savor this wine, you’ll appreciate the crisp, mouthwatering finish. The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc is sure to be the perfect companion to a warm summer afternoon or a light seafood dinner.
