Winemaking Notes

Fresh, bright and crisp, this Sauvignon Blanc is a wine of balance, richness and aromatic
complexity. Leading with zesty citrus notes of grapefruit, Meyer lemon and a light
grassiness, this wine gives way to more tropical fruit and melon characteristics. This
classic Sonoma County style Sauvignon Blanc ends with clean, refreshing acidity and
pairs beautifully with toasted brie, seared scallops, oysters with mignonette and fresh
pasta with sweet peas and a lemon cream sauce.

Food pairings

This classic Sauvignon Blanc pairs wonderfully with oysters, salads, vegetable quiche and a variety of seafood dishes.

History

Since 1959, our passion has been to craft best in class wines in our sustainable winery to
share with friends and family. Our Charlottes Home Sauvignon Blanc is grown in
vineyards where well-drained mineral rich soils join with sun drenched days and cool
evenings. This ideal setting allows for a light, crisp and highly authentic Sonoma County
style Sauvignon Blanc, one that radiates bright citrus, peach and exotic tropical avors.

The Vineyards

The 2018 growing season was dry through the spring with well below normal
precipitation. Cooler weather dominated this vintage with only two short, relatively
mild heat spikes through the entire growing season. Summer days were very pleasant in
Sonoma County with highs in the 70s and 80s and with August having even warmer
temperatures. Harvest began September 5 and nished by October 5.
