Our Reserve Sauvignon Blanc was allowed to hang an a bit longer than our Sonoma County Sauvignon Blanc lots to obtain a riper more full bodied profile. It was then night harvested to maintain its aromatics. The fruit was received in the cellar, where the grapes were pressed whole cluster. The fermentation was completed at cool temperatures to maintain and enhance the natural, varietal flavors and aromas and then all of the juice was sent to neutral barrels to mature. The final blend captures the lovely fresh qualities of Sauvignon Blanc while representing some of its richer more tropical notes of a Sauvignon Blanc aged in oak barrels.
