2022 Ehlers Estate Sauvignon Blanc St. Helena
Winemaker Notes: The 2022 Ehlers Estate Sauvignon Blanc is a pale yellow in color. In the nose a bouquet of yellow flowers, mandarin and lime peel aromas, coupled with pineapple, grapefruit and white peach. There are also nuanced aromas from the new oak, rich sweet baking spices, vanilla bean and caramel round out the nose. The mouthfeel is generous and intense with bright flavors, sweet pomelo, blood orange and lemon tart. The vibrant acidity is balanced by the creamy texture lent by the careful lees work during ageing.
CRITICAL ACCLAIM
Wine Enthusiast - "This wine practically sizzles with herbaceous flavors and vivid acidity, from the grassy, dried thyme aromas to the lemon and grapefruit flavors, to the tangy finish. It is super refreshing and crisp, perfect for raw oysters and virtually any other seafood."
