Aperture 2022 Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley
$44.99
Aperture 2022 Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley
A small-production gem! Aperture Sauvignon Blanc has a stunning mix of tropical notes and citrus married with decadent highlights of honey on the nose. The barrel fermentation and aging create an incredible richness on the palate that is balanced by significant bright natural acidity.
96 Points Robert Parker: "The Aperture Sauvignon Blanc is blended with three percent Sémillon and matured for six months in one-third new, once-used and older barrels. Sourced mainly from the Dry Stack Vineyard in Bennett Valley, this latest release includes fruit from the Aperture estate vineyards in Healdsburg. In 2022, even more vines will be dedicated to the Sauvignon Blanc, from newly planted vines in the recently purchased Farrow Ranch in Alexander Valley. In the glass, flinty tones give way to perfumed white peach, tarragon, citrus blossoms, toast and beeswax. The palate is medium-bodied, satiny and expansive with concentrated, flint-laced flavors countered by tangy acidity. Its flavors are anchored by a touch of textural grip that also drives the honeyed finish, and this has the potential to develop savory complexity in bottle over the next 3-5 years or more. 1,808 cases produced."
