Aged in 95% stainless steel, the remaining 5% in concrete vessels. 6 months sur lie.  Pale lemon. Grassy, just-ripe papaya nose. Lean and characterful with a touch of green pepper on the palate, a broad texture from lees work and bright acidity. GV   (SCJ)

Bright lemon, minty herbs, and a kiss of chalky minerality all emerge from the 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, a beautifully balanced, elegant Sauvignon that shines for its juicy, approachable style.

Pale lemon with a green hue. Fresh and grassy with passion fruit and star fruit. Zippy, mouth-watering acidity. Pithy finish. (SCJ)
