The 2024 growing season began with generous winter rains that saturated the soils and set the vines up for success. After an early budbreak and bloom, we benefited from a warm-to-hot summer, including several days close to 100 F. At our cool Attelas Vineyard, the heat worked in our favor allowing the grapes to fully ripen, with cool mountain nights helping to preserve excellent natural acidity and more delicate aromas. As a result, our 2024 Sauvignon Blanc harvest produced exceptional quality grapes with tantalizing citrus, stone fruit and tropical elements.
Beautifully high-toned and vibrant, this sensational expression of mountain-grown Sauvignon Blanc draws you in with exotic aromas of quince, kiwi, Key lime, orange blossom and Ruby Red grapefruit, as well as hints of clove, fresh sage and tarragon. On the palate it is bright and racy, with volcanic minerality and fine-tuned acidity supporting succulent layers of peach, melon and lychee as they glide to a tantalizing finish complemented by notes of vanilla, sweet oak and brioche.
