Barnett Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc Andrews Vineyard Dry Creek Valley 2023 750ml

This light straw gold wine is bursting with aromatics. Loaded with passionfruit and honeydew melon the nose turns to lime zest and white pepper. The wine is quite lush for Sauvignon blanc, with lemon custard and kiwi on the palate. Bright acidity balances out the lushness and the wine finishes with a myriad of tropical fruit. This wine has always been at its best in its youth.

Winemaking Notes: We whole cluster pressed, settled, racked and stainless steel fermented the juice. Again, we placed all sections of the fruit together to ferment in one tank. After fermentation we racked the wine off the lees to another tank where the wine was held under argon and kept cool for months. We bottled with a screw cap for the second time ever. Using a screw cap is perfect for wines where you want to retain the bright aromatics and that are meant to be drank in their youth.
