2022 Charles Krug Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley

Winemaker Notes: Fruit for our Sauvignon Blanc, principally sourced from our historic St. Helena estate, was hand-picked in the cool of night to ensure it reached the winery in pristine condition. The freshly picked grapes were cold-soaked on the skins for 6-8 hours, before going to press, a process that enhances the fruit’s natural aromatics. The wine was cold fermented slowly in stainless steel tanks to further its wonderfully aromatic bouquet and delicate flavor profile. This light- to medium-bodied wine displays vibrant notes of white floral, lemon and orange blossoms, honeydew, pink guava and lemon verbena on the nose. Flavors of guava, passion fruit, sugar pea, lime and lemon with sweet tart acidity and a crisp finish.
