Dancing Crow Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc 2020

Description

Winery: “This wine shows off a dazzling, electrum, gold appearance. That leads into aromas of freshly cut Bartlett pears, key lime and orange blossoms. On the palate an invigorating texture is apparent, with flavors of mandarin, white pineapple and poached pear. The mouthfeel is generous and bright, followed by a wisp of lime zest and minerality on the full-flavored finish.”After pressing the grapes, winemakers David and Katharine let the juice settle for three days at 48-50°F before being racked for fermentation. We utilize two yeast strains in separate fermentations with particular focus on developing aromatics, richness and mouthfeel. Cold fermentation and lees stirring are employed to further the process by adding length and texture, in addition to, enhancing innate floral and fruit aromas. In the style of Sancerre, our winemaking focuses on showcasing the crisp and aromatic side of Sauvignon Blanc, with particular attention to the clear expression of the grape as it is grown in our vineyard.
