2022 Aratas ‘Napa Valley’ Sauvignon Blanc – Limited Availability

Description

The 2022 Aratas Sauvignon Blanc marries the mountains and valley floor in a sublime blend grown in Napa Valley.

A delightful blend from grapes grown in two distinct vineyards: one deeply rooted at 1000’ elevation in the sedimentary soils of the Mayacamas mountain range upon Mt Veeder and our original vineyard planted to vine in complex alluvial soils on the valley floor in the District of Oak Knoll. 100% Sauvignon Blanc. Hand harvested August 26- 29, 2022. Fermented 6 months sur lie in French oak for supple texture and mouthfeel.

[Tasting impressions: A highly aromatic wine with, lively acidity and impressions of mango, honeydew  melon, wet rock, Limetta, lychee and green tea. This white wine will age well for those inclined to savor over time. Drink now thru 2028]. This is a limited production wine.

Winemaker, Matt Sunseri
