St Supery Napa Valley Dollarhide Sauvignon Blanc 2024 (1x75cl)

St. Supéry's Dollarhide Estate Vineyard, situated in the northeastern hills of Napa Valley, provides a unique terroir for Sauvignon Blanc. This elevated site benefits from cooler temperatures and well-drained volcanic soils, contributing to a prolonged ripening period that fosters aromatic intensity and structural integrity in the grapes. The 2024 vintage exemplifies the estate's commitment to expressing varietal purity and site-specific characteristics. The winemaking approach typically emphasizes stainless steel fermentation to preserve the grape's inherent freshness and vibrant acidity, though judicious use of neutral oak may be employed to add textural complexity without masking the fruit.

Tasting notes

The 2024 St. Supéry Dollarhide Sauvignon Blanc presents a luminous pale straw hue. On the nose, an intricate bouquet unfolds with pronounced notes of ripe grapefruit, lime zest, and passionfruit, underpinned by subtle herbaceous nuances of fresh cut grass and a distinct minerality. The palate is remarkably vibrant and precise, characterized by a lively acidity that carries flavors of citrus and tropical fruit through to a long, refreshing finish. A wine of excellent balance and textural finesse, reflecting its cool-climate origins within Napa Valley.
