2022 Rewa Sauvignon Blanc
Upon first pour, bright lemon and pineapple aromas intertwined with toasty fresh caramel and yeasty notes, as well as a strong sense of minerality. On the palate the wine is bright and fresh, with tropical tones of guava and pineapple plus white peach and apricot. The wine is texturally full and soft, with a broad midpalate and a juicy clean finish. More structural than most offerings of this variety in California, this wine offers rich, full-bodied texture.
The fruit for this Coombsville, Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc was harvested by hand before dawn on September 6th, 2022. The clusters were whole-cluster pressed, then settled briefly before the juice was transferred to French Oak barrels for fermentation. The wine in those barrels sur-lie for approximately 9 months prior to bottling in August, 2023. A total of 154 cases were produced.
