Sauvignon Blanc 2022 Harvest from Preston Farm & Winery, Napa Valley

Preston Farm & Winery | 2022 Sauvignon Blanc

Origin: Dry Creek Valley, Sonoma County, California

Discover the vibrant character of our 2022 Dry Creek Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Cultivated on unique ancient creek-bed soils in Sonoma County’s renowned wine region, these expressive vines yield grapes bursting with natural intensity. Our meticulous harvest began in late August to capture peak freshness.

This California Sauvignon Blanc undergoes a brief skin maceration before fermentation – 85% in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks to preserve bright fruit essence and crisp acidity, while 15% ages gracefully in French oak barrels for subtle complexity and a rounded mouthfeel.

Tasting Profile: Awaken your senses to generous aromas of zesty lemon peel and fragrant lemongrass, layered with just-ripe tropical fruit nuances. Delicate herbal notes of fresh orchard grass and wild thyme add intriguing depth. On the palate, rich lemon-oil acidity provides a beautifully focused structure, complemented by distinctive oyster shell minerality leading to a pure, quenching finish that invites another sip.

Perfectly balanced at 12.8% alcohol, this refreshing white wine offers exceptional versatility:
* Ideal Pairing: Elevate seafood dishes (especially oysters or grilled fish), light salads with goat cheese, or enjoy its crispness as an aperitif.
* Key Distinction: Experience the harmony between Sonoma County’s bright fruit expression and sophisticated texture achieved through partial French oak barrel fermentation – delivering complexity without heaviness.

Experience the effortless elegance and vibrant minerality of this standout Sonoma County Sauvignon Blanc vintage.
