Sacrilege White '23

This wine is composed of 64% Sauvignon Blanc that was soaked on its skins for 24 hours before being pressed and then fermented in foudre. The remaining 36% is composed of Cabernet Franc which was gently whole bunch pressed and fermented in older barrels as a “blancs de noir”. Both wines underwent malolactic fermentation to soften the acidity and were left on their ferment lees for 4-5 months before being blended. The palate has notes of yellow citrus fruit, gooseberry, lemongrass, lemon curd texture, with a crisp saline finish. This is a beguiling wine has many layers and will benefit from some bottle age to fully express itself.
