2008 Sauvignon Blanc Dry Creek Valley

WOW!!  That's the best way to describe this Sauvignon blanc.  This is the same great wine and vineyard in Dry Creek Valley.  These grapes were picked early this harvest and we tried our best to manage the ripeness, even so, we ended with alcohol around 14.32% and the wine is very balanced and EXQUISITE!!  We cold fermented this wine very slowly (22 days) to preserve the tropical esters (aromas and flavors) and left the wine on its lees for 6 months before racking.  The wine was so well protected by the lees that it had a bright green color similar to the grape juice at pressing! 

This Sauvignon blanc has an exuberant floral bouquet bursting with juicy complex fruit.  Flavors of tangerine and lemon drops, topped with notes of pineapple, mango and guava.  This lovely crisp wine makes a perfect aperitif and is a natural match for seasonal shellfish dishes.
