Meyer Family Cellars Sauvignon Blanc 2024

A Radiant Expression from Mendocino’s Yorkville Highlands

Sourced from Meyer Family Cellars’ esteemed vineyards in California’s Yorkville Highlands—a region celebrated for its cool maritime climate and mineral-laden soils—this 2024 Sauvignon Blanc embodies a perfect harmony of ripeness and refreshing elegance.

Flavors & Nuances

  • Vivid Fruit Notes: Juicy ripe melon and nectarine take center stage, while hints of tropical guava add a sun-kissed brightness to each sip.
  • Spice & Complexity: Subtle aromatic layers of nutmeg and cinnamon weave through the palate, offering a warm contrast to its crisp acidity.
  • Rich Texture: A touch of viscosity from this vintage’s density invites pairings with rich dishes like cured meats or creamy cheeses—enhanced further by four months of aging in neutral French oak barrels for added depth without overpowering oak influence.

Why This Wine Stands Out

Unlike many Sauvignons that lean overly grassy or herbal, Meyer Family Cellars’ approach balances bold fruit character with refined sophistication. The oak aging process softens edges while preserving brightness—a hallmark of their meticulous craftsmanship that distinguishes this wine from Napa Valley counterparts favoring stainless steel fermentation alone.

Pairing Possibilities

Whether sipped solo as an apéritif or matched with seared scallops drizzled in brown butter sauce or herb-roasted chicken with creamy polenta, this wine’s versatility shines through its seamless blend of fruit intensity and oak-enhanced elegance.
