2024 Marble Cliffs Sauvignon blanc

2024 Dry Creek Valley Sauvignon Blanc (Fermented in 100% Stainless Steel at 55 degrees F)

Tasting Notes

This Sauvignon Blanc shines with a brilliant pale straw color, crystal-clear and luminous in the glass—a reflection of its pure, stainless-steel fermentation. The nose is expressive and bursting with fresh citrus and tropical fruit. Vibrant aromas of guava, ripe white peach, and juicy passion fruit lead the way, with hints of white blossom and wet stone adding elegance and complexity. Crisp and refreshing, the palate is bright and well-balanced, delivering a lively mix of citrus zest, honeydew melon, and subtle lychee. The acidity is vibrant yet well-integrated, giving the wine a mouthwatering energy without being overpowering. A rounded texture emerges midpalate, softening the wine’s zippiness just enough to let the fruit shine. Delicate mineral undertones and a whisper of saline provide depth, enhancing the overall structure and finesse. The finish is clean, refreshing, and persistent, with lingering notes of citrus and tropical fruit. A touch of minerality lingers, leaving a crisp, satisfying impression.
