Alexander Valley

2024 Alexander Valley Sauvignon Blanc

The 2024 vintage in Alexander Valley offered consistent warmth and bountiful sunshine resulting in wines of remarkable richness and character. The season began with replenished soils from a long rainy winter. Moderately warm, dry, and temperate Spring weather from budbreak through flowering allowed for healthy fruit set. As the 2024 growing season progressed, Sauvignon Blanc berries were notably smaller than average, leading to smaller yields with higher concentration of bright tropical fruit flavors. The summer heat ramped up with temperatures consistently in the upper 90s throughout August and early September, providing the vines with the necessary warmth for optimal ripening, while Sonoma County's cool nights and coastal breezes helped preserve freshness.
