The 2023 Ehret Estate Sauvignon Blanc is made from 100% Sauvignon Blanc is sourced entirely from the family's Bavarian Lion Vineyard which is the same spot where they grow their killer Cabernet Sauvignon. This gem was aged in 100% stainless steel, meaning this wine retains all of the zesty freshness you love in Sauvignon Blanc. Beautifully aromatic and expressive, with Mandarin orange zest, lime blossom, and pineapple floating out of the glass. It has layers of juicy, bright fruit on the palate - lemon preserves, golden grapefruit, lime, with green herbs adding a touch of spice. Mouth-filling but elegant and precisely balanced, this brand-new release is a crowd pleaser.
The painstaking effort with which we crafted this singular expression of Knights Valley Sauvignon Blanc was worth every last second of the month-long ferment. Utilizing an extremely low-temperature tactic allowed us to enhance and concentrate the fruit expression this grape variety is so famous for. On the nose, tree-ripened Satsuma mandarin zest immediately blasts out of the glass! This enticing aroma continues onto the palate coupled with a minerality expressing the terroir of the wine’s noble origin. The lively zip of acidity that follows awakens the senses from the cornucopia of fruit that preceded, allowing more attention to be focused on the underlying notes of key lime pie and juicy crane melon. This forward presentation is followed by a clean, long finish that is reminiscent of biting into a ripe nectarine while relaxing on a hot summer day.
