Winemaker’s
Comments
2007 vintage is best remembered for being warm and dry. Batches of
Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc were harvested cold at night before
gentle pressing for settling. Juice was then racked in a reductive
manner to ferment. A variety of yeast were used to enhance complexity
and to encourage the development of texture which is further improved
with periodic lees stirring. This style is all about freshness and
vitality—enjoy!
Serve
Chilled at approximately 46-50 degrees F.
Food
Enjoy with friends and fresh oysters, grilled shrimp or spicy Asian
dishes.
