Cakebread Sauvignon Blanc 2023, 750ml
The Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from vineyards throughout Napa Valley and the North Coast, including estate ranches in Carneros, Suscol Springs, Rutherford, and Calistoga. The cooler southern regions add bright citrus and minerality, while the warmer northern areas contribute tropical notes.
A blend of 99% Sauvignon Blanc, 1% Semillon
(harvested during the night, and whole cluster pressed)
Aged for 5 months in 64% neutral French oak; 32% stainless steel tank, 4% concrete egg.
Tasting note:
The Sauvignon Blanc opens with aromas of pink grapefruit, lemon curd, fresh pear, melon, and passionfruit. Flavors of citrus, kiwi, and lemon zest give way to more subtle hints of mango, guava, and pineapple. Crisp and refreshing, this light-bodied wine beautifully balances concentrated fruit flavors and lively acidity with a gently textured mineral finish.
