Markham Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley

“This wine offers an authentic expression of cooler-climate Sauvignon Blanc. Its bright natural acidity is juicy and thirst-quenching, while complex aromatics and lifted flavors of grapefruit and citrusy lime are accented beautifully by wet stone minerality. The elegant, textured mouthfeel leads to a clean, crisp finish.” - Kimberlee Nicholls, Winemaker • VINEYARD & HARVEST NOTES: Proximity to the San Pablo Bay brings cooling fog to the Oak Knoll District, ideal for maintaining natural acidity. Consistent growing season allowed harvest to kick off in August. Grapes were picked and processed in the winter prior to the heat spikes in the Fall. • FERMENTATION: 100% Stainless Steel • AGING: 4 Months in Stainless Steel • VINTAGE 2022 SCORE • 90 Points, JamesSuckling.com, April 2023 - “Aromas of fresh lime, ripe gooseberries, citrus peel and orchid blossom.
