Lot 4 Sauvignon Blanc
Lot 4 Sauvignon Blanc is grown in a four-acre parcel with northeast exposure from clone 317 vines; an
unusual clone that originated in Sancerre. Hand-harvested and selected on a vibrating sorting table in
order to ensure quality, the grapes for this Sauvignon Blanc are then gently pressed, at low pressure. Lot
4 is crafted exclusively from free-run juice that ferments in both stainless steel (85 percent) and French
oak barrels (15 percent), aging on its fine lees for six months to obtain a creamy, yet structured palate.
With great elegance and mineral character, this Sauvignon Blanc is perfumed and floral, with notes of
grapefruit and lime as well as subtle herbaceous nuances. On the palate, it has great strength and a rich
creaminess with sharp and vibrant acidity throughout the lasting finish.
