Crafted with the same care and dedication that has defined Duckhorn Vineyards since 1982, the Duckhorn North Coast Sauvignon Blanc 2023 offers a stunning expression of California’s North Coast. Blended with Sémillon to bring added depth and complexity, this wine showcases the vibrant citrus and tropical flavors that have become synonymous with the region. With fermentation in both stainless steel and French oak, the wine is balanced by refreshing acidity and the signature silkiness of Sémillon, creating a refreshing and elegant Sauvignon Blanc.
Vintage Notes: The 2023 growing season was shaped by heavy winter and spring rains, resulting in one of the latest harvests in recent memory. Cooler spring temperatures extended the flowering period, and extra thinning was applied to achieve a balanced crop. The cooler than average temperatures allowed the grapes extra hangtime, ensuring an extended ripening process that contributed to one of the most rewarding vintages. The resulting Sauvignon Blanc is a unique and crisp wine, with ideal flavor development, bright acidity, and a fresh profile that perfectly complements the season's longer growing cycle.
Tasting Notes: On the nose, the Duckhorn North Coast Sauvignon Blanc 2023 delivers vibrant aromas of pineapple, melon, and lemon verbena, complemented by a subtle minerality. The palate is silky and lively thanks to the inclusion of Sémillon, which adds texture and balance. Tropical fruit flavors are beautifully harmonized with citrus notes, culminating in a juicy and energetic finish that is as refreshing as it is elegant.
Winemaking Notes: The wine was aged for 5 months sur lie, which contributes to its round, silky mouthfeel and complex flavor profile. The balance between the Sémillon and Sauvignon Blanc creates a wine that is both vibrant and smooth, with flavors that evolve gracefully in the glass.
Food Pairings: This Sauvignon Blanc is perfect for pairing with a variety of dishes, from seafood, grilled vegetables, and chicken to goat cheese and fresh salads. It also makes a fantastic companion to dishes featuring citrus-based sauces, enhancing its crisp acidity and tropical flavors.
Experience the vibrant, balanced, and refreshing nature of Duckhorn’s North Coast Sauvignon Blanc 2023—a wine that beautifully captures the essence of California’s finest vineyards.
