ABOUT THIS WINE:
Cakebread Cellars
Sauvignon Blanc
For the Cakebread Cellars Sauvignon Blanc, they select grapes from the best growing spots in Napa Valley, including their estate ranches in Carneros, Suscol Springs, Rutherford, and Calistoga. Cold nighttime harvest, whole-cluster press, and a variety of fermentation vessels—stainless steel tanks, neutral French oak barrels, and a concrete egg—enhance the complexity of this bright, crisp, mineral-driven wine. Sauvignon Blanc was the first white grape variety their family planted in 1972 adjacent to the Rutherford winery, and it’s still thriving there today. Zesty citrus aromas and flavors and balanced acidity make this classic Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc a perfect pairing for many dishes.
NOTE: This is NOT a Firstleaf Exclusive Wine.

WINE REGION:
Napa Valley
Napa gained international acclaim following the Judgement of Paris in 1976, when its wines defeated its French counterparts in a blind tasting. Napa's signature wines are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and various Bordeaux blends, but many other varieties, such as Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc also thrive here. With 16 sub-AVAs and a Mediterranean climate with rich geology, Napa is a winemaker's dream. The winegrowing region runs between the Mayacamas Mountains and Vaca Mountains for 30 miles, from Calistoga to Los Carneros. Napa has a wide array of soil types for such a small region, from volcanic foothills to alluvial valley floors, which help to produce varied and complex wines.

TASTING NOTES:
Grapefruit
Melon
Mineral
Aromas of fresh pink grapefruit, sweet citrus, and hay burst with freshness on the nose. Cool melon tones balance pink grapefruit on the palate, accented by ripe acidity and a subtle mineral citrus finish.
