Ink Grade Sauvignon Blanc 2019 750ml

This is Sauvignon Blanc from California. We possess ample sunlight hours and therefore our Sauvignon Blanc will and should retain tropical components (passionfruit, honeydew, grapefruit). And because of the volcanic "tufa" soils at Ink Grade and how this site ripens, we often retain an herbal/mineral backdrop (lemongrass and slate). We must farm vigilantly to retain these aromatics while at the same time preserving the natural acidity that is needed to keep these wines lifted and never heavy. Yet we would be remiss if we didn’t praise the structure of this wine. Working with concrete, stainless steel and large oak vessels to marry textures and weights; working with lees to enhance the saline quality; and pressing longer to build structure and expose a minor note of bitterness on the finish; We are extremely proud of the poise this wine has and know that it will be a pillar for California Sauvignon Blanc.
