We harvest our Sauvignon Blanc grapes at night, when vines are in full repose, to fully capture their fresh, concentrated varietal flavors, crisp acidity and ideal sugar-acid balance. Whole-cluster-pressing of fruit immediately upon arrival at winery maximizes varietal intensity while minimizing extraction of astringent compounds from skins. In 2010, we tank-fermented 88% of juice while fermenting 12% in neutral oak barrels. Subsequently, 87% of wine spent five months aging in neutral French oak barrels, which enriched its texture while optimizing varietal expression. Due to coolness of vintage, our 2010 Sauvignon Blanc is especially fresh, crisp and vibrant, offering bright honeydew melon, pink grapefruit, gooseberry and vanilla aromas and rich, mouthwatering, citrus, nectarine and melon flavors. An ideal aperitif wine, it also beautifully accompanies a wide and diverse range of foods, from shellfish and lighter seafood dishes to roast chicken, Caesar Salad and pasta primavera.

Although 2010 fruit was much riper than 2009, acidity was also higher which makes this wine extremely concentrated while still maintaining balance. 2010 vintage also had lower yields than normal, but what was harvested is truly special.

This wine is from United States, California region, Napa County sub-region and Napa Valley appellation. In some vintages, the decision about when to pick is a tough judgment call as we closely follow the maturation of the grapes' flavors and tannins. Both Chris Phelps and I found this vintage less demanding, as we achieved the level of ripeness we were seeking from area to area in the vineyard with perfect, rain-free weather conditions. This was a great vintage mainly due to Mother Nature, who gave us a cool, long summer and held off the winter until true physiological ripeness occurred and all the grapes were off the vines. Due to the cool start of the growing season, we did even more cluster thinning than usual to balance the crop load on each vine and ensure maturity. The resulting yields were only about half of normal, but the quality of the Cabernet Sauvignon was extraordinary. In the small vineyard blocks that consistently produce grapes of the level we require for the Special Selection designation, the flavors were lush and substantial, and the tannins had a ripe, melt-in-the-mouth quality. We hand-harvested the grapes from September 25 through October 18.In many ways, the 1999 vintage wine made itself. Overnight after crushing, we saw intense color and great concentration in the juice, which only deepened during fermentation and the three-week maceration period. In this vintage, Chris selected 93 percent new French oak barrels, crafted by half a dozen different coopers for additional complexity and nuances of aroma and flavor. The wines aged in barrel for 17 months before we elected to capture the exuberant fruit flavors, the hallmark of this excellent, ripe vintage. I believe the resulting wine defines pure pleasure-and Special Selection's true pedigree. . Minimize
