Tasting Notes
Our 2013 Wildwood Sauvignon Blanc dazzles with lush ripe pear, pineapple, nectarine, passion fruit and warm-apple-pie expression. Lovely hints of Asian lemongrass—the signature of Sauvignon Blanc—mingle with sweet cinnamon spice complexity from new French oak barrels. The long, smooth finish picks up a warm nuance of fresh ginger. A unique expression of Rutherford terroir, our Wildwood Sauvignon Blanc captures the personality of a single small block of vines in our estate vineyard on the east side of Napa Valley. With its impeccable balance of crisp acidity and generous fruit expression, this wine is a great match for halibut glazed with honey, ginger, garlic and cilantro; warmed medallions of goat cheese with fresh mixed lettuces; and even crème brûlée with ripe strawberries.
