Tasting Notes
This Columbia Valley Sauvignon Blanc is a zesty, expressive white wine that channels the vibrant character of New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc while rooted in Washington terroir. With energy and aromatic lift, the acidity and mouthfeel are in complete balance, while maintaining lightness and a simple core.
Aroma
Aromatic and inviting, the nose is packed with notes of white peach and grapefruit zest. Underneath, you’ll find subtle hints of fresh-cut grass, lime leaf, and flinty minerality that add layers of complexity and a distinctly New World flair.
Palate
On the palate, this wine is lean, bright, and mouthwatering. Juicy citrus—lime, lemon, and ruby grapefruit—is present right away, supported by green melon and lemongrass. A streak of minerality and balanced acidity keeps it tight and focused, finishing dry and clean with a lingering citrus pith edge.
Food Pairing
This Sauvignon Blanc pairs beautifully with dishes that highlight freshness and acidity—think citrus-marinated grilled chicken, Thai green curry, or sushi. It also sings alongside shellfish, asparagus risotto, or a simple tomato and burrata salad with basil and sea salt.
Aging Potential
Made to be enjoyed in its youth, this wine is at its aromatic and textural peak within 2–3 years of bottling.
