Sourced from Lake County fruit grown under dramatic day-to-night temperature shifts, it delivers both intensity and restraint in a style that feels distinctly estate-minded and thoughtfully made.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe wine shows a clean, luminous pale-gold hue in the glass. On the nose, it is vivid and expressive, opening with white pear, honeydew melon, grapefruit, wildflower honey, and a subtle touch of cinnamon.\n\nThe palate is fresh and tightly focused, with flavors of pear, citrus, lime, nectarine skin, melon, and a faint suggestion of fresh fig. Its lively acidity gives the wine a lifted, mouthwatering feel, and while it is delicious now, the structure and balance suggest it can develop nicely over the next few years.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduction\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Sauvignon Blanc comes from Lake County, where pronounced temperature swings help preserve acidity while encouraging ripe, aromatic fruit.
