Made exclusively from Sauvignon Musqué, an especially aromatic clone of Sauvignon Blanc, grown at Zabala Vineyard in Arroyo Seco. The vineyard sits in the ancient riverbed on granitic soils over cobblestone, where strong winds and dense fog keep yields low and the growing season cool. The result is an expressive, fruit-forward Sauvignon Blanc with freshness and minerality.
Vibrant aromas of stone fruit, citrus, wet stone, gooseberry, and guava. Lemon, citrus, and peach fill the palate, finishing with pronounced minerality and racing acidity.
100% Sauvignon Blanc, exclusively from the Sauvignon Musqué clone at Zabala Vineyard. Hand-harvested in the early morning on September 20, 2023, the grapes were whole-cluster pressed into stainless steel and fermented there before aging on fine lees for 10 months. Bottled July 22, 2024.
