Intensely aromatic and lively with flavors of peach, grapefruit, lime, melon and cut grass. This is a crisp, refreshing, vibrant and aromatic example of Marlborough's best Sauvignon Blanc.
Jumps out of the glass with lime zest, passion fruit and pineapple flavors on a clean, mouthwatering and juicy frame, while hints of fresh herbs, including lemon thyme, and a dash of sea salt emerge on the finish.
Fresh and pure nose with some guavas and hints of pears, green apples and fine herbs, too. Elegant and bright on the medium-bodied palate. Flavorful but subtle and textured. Dry, with a very nice phenolic bite at the end. An excellent aperitif. Drink now.
The soils in the Sierra Foothills are special. As an avid wine enthusiast and Napa frequenter, to discover such a secretive wine region inspired founder, Janis Akuna. It gave her a vision to share a different kind of experience with other wine enthusiasts. But even more than that, it was the rural wine region of Amador County that struck her the most; reminiscent of the early days of Napa she so dearly missed. In 2009, Janis and her husband, Andy Friedlander, found their own stretch of land to replant portions of the vineyard originally planted in the 1970s, while seeking out the highest quality vineyards to buy additional fruit.
