Ravine Sauvignon Blanc 2022

This wine comes from our newly acquired vineyard from the Four Mile Creek Appellation. There are 5 different clones planted on the site which make for great fun when it comes to fermenting and blending. We played around with barrel ferments and steel ferments, old and new french barriques, as well as a large format french oak. Fruit was machine harvested but triple berry sorted and destemmed. Skin contact was for 6 hours in our enclosed press. We later used a special customized program designed specifically for aromatic whites (slow long and not exceeding 1 bar), along with 5 months of barrel aging. This is the first time we controlled the growing season, for this sauv blanc block. While many lost fruit in 2022 , our wind machines along with spur pruning really saved this particular block.
