We SOLD OUT on our first Marathon, but the Operatives on the live stream spoke and we listened. The rest of the day we have MICA!

Mission Codename Pamp It

Succulent, intoxicating fruit driven whites, where have you been?! It’s been a parade of big reds lately but today we fill that void in a BIG way!

100pt winemaking pro Jean Hoefliger turned loose a powerful, balanced, and downright tasty SB for your drinking pleasure. And we turned loose a 45% discount dropping it from $38 to a much friendlier $21. YES!

Maxville is a name you’ll keep hearing more and more in the wine press soon as recent investments in vineyards and quality are through the roof. Perhaps you scored some of their ‘Oranos’ we sold earlier this year and already know what we’re talking about.

This is pumped up Sauv Blanc, done in the Jean Hoefliger style. Fermented in three ways - concrete egg, stainless and in barrel - it shows a wild complexity. Fully charged with ripe grapefruit and pears, maybe some lemon curd too. A backbone of gentle oak adds some toastiness, with a hint of butter and a nibble of caramel. Ample acidity keeps it from bloating, adding a perky and bright zip to it. The components all fit together perfectly to create a Sauv Blanc you must taste to fully comprehend.

For $21 you’ll be hard pressed to find a better example out there. Don’t linger much longer - what little we have will not last!
