Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
Densely aromatic, our 2023 Reserve Sauvignon Blanc offers a generous bouquet of Granny Smith apple tangy grapefruit and white peach. The mouthfeel is lush and creamy, with a complex and energetic palette offering Meyer lemon, custard and apricot. It’s stunning already with a youthful appeal but is sure to improve with a bit of time in the bottle.
Vineyard Notes
Our home ranch on the west side of the High Valley AVA has been known as “High Serenity Ranch” for over one hundred years. The blocks planted to this idyllic site include Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier and Gewurztraminer. Each block is comprised of ancient lakebed and alluvial soils from the surrounding mountain range. The transverse valley winds create some of the coolest sites in Lake County. The lower temperatures on the valley floor allow for diurnal temperature swings of more than forty degrees, enhancing flavor development while retaining a crisp acidity.

Winemaker Notes
We harvested our grapes early in the morning to ensure peak acidity and freshness upon arrival to the winery. After gentle pressing, we allowed the juice to cold settle overnight. The next day we racked the juice off heavy lees and transferred the juice to ferment in a concrete vessel. Sur lie aging with battonage (lees stirring) once a week in concrete creates additional body, texture and viscosity in the wine. This wine was crafted from our finest vineyards, aged six months, fined and very lightly filtered before bottling for maximum freshness and brilliant clarity.
