Sauvignon Blanc

Combining the tropical, melon aromas of warm weather Sauvignon Blanc with the racy, citrus flavors found when grown in cooler climates, this wine is bright, aromatic, and remarkably refreshing.

Vineyard Information

Our 2009 Sauvignon Blanc was sourced from 100% Monterey
County vineyards. This marine-influenced, breezy site is ideal for growing Sauvignon Blanc rich with intense tropical
characteristics. The coastal vineyards allow for a longer ripening season, which results in a beautiful balance of sugar,
acidity and fruit.

Winemaking

After pressing the Sauvignon Blanc grapes, the free run juice was cold-fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks. The wine was bottled early to retain freshness, varietal expression and racy acidity.

Tasting Notes

The Main Street 2009 Sauvignon Blanc is crisp and refreshing with bright notes of tropical
fruit, melon and pear. The wine is aromatic, and remarkably refreshing with lemon and lime woven into the finish. The Sauvignon Blanc is quite versatile and pairs nicely with a fresh mozzarella, tomato and basil salad drizzled with olive oil. Also try pairing this Sauvignon Blanc with herb-roasted chicken served over wild rice.
