Vintage Conditions
A warm, dry growing season allowed Sauvignon Blanc grapes to reach optimum maturity, allowing good varietal expression.
Winemaking
Selected parcels of fruit were harvested in excellent condition and gently pressed to retain varietal character and freshness. Winemaking techniques included barrel fermentation in French oak and fermentation at elevated temperatures. These techniques improve texture and softness without sacrificing varietal expression.
