Tasting Notes

The 1997 Sauvignon Blanc opens with vibrant aromas of citrus blossom, ripe grapefruit, and hints of fresh-cut grass. On the palate, it delivers a lively burst of lemon zest, green apple, and tropical fruit, balanced by a refreshing acidity that gives the wine remarkable energy and lift. Subtle mineral undertones and a touch of herbaceousness add depth and complexity, leading to a crisp, lingering finish. The wine’s purity and precision reflect both its organic origins and the meticulous care taken in the vineyard and cellar, making it a standout example of Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc.
