Baby Blue Blanc

Vineyards - 41% Knightsbridge, 28% Fallenleaf, 20% Hall Road, 9.7% Gap Stone, 1.3% Jemrose Winemaker's Tasting Notes - Always a special labor of love, the 2019 vintage brought us back to a more traditional white Bordeaux-inspired Sauvignon Blanc blend. It was also the first vintage we had the pleasure of sourcing nearly 10% from Regalia Vineyard, our beautiful new Estate site in the Petaluma Gap. Fermented primarily in stainless steel for freshness and verve, we gained texture and layering with barrel-fermented Semillon and Viognier in the final cuvée. A luminescent pale straw hue nearly makes you salivate on its own, only to be outdone by gorgeous aromas of lime, kiwi and Asian pear with subtle notes of chamomile and a touch of exotic floral perfume. This continues on the palate with honeydew and passionfruit joining the crisp citrusy flavors, all carried beautifully by wonderful acidity for a long and satisfying finish. While light and refreshing, it offers enough body and length to be a good sipper both poolside as well as at the table.
