Perfect Spring White Wine!

Groth 2006 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc

You will fall in love with this wine and look for it year after year!

Retail: I have seen this wine listing between $13.99 to $19.99 in various wine shops

All of the Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon was whole cluster pressed. Whole cluster pressing gives us juice of incredibly high fruitiness and softness. 30% of the blend is fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks; this aging process allows the juice to retain its fruitiness, flavors and aromas. The remaining 70% of the juice was moved to small oak barrels where it was put through a long, cool fermentation. Within two weeks, the wine completed fermentation and were allowed to age "sur lie" for a total of five months in the small oak barrels. This fermentation and aging program adds rich complexity to the aromas and flavors.

Enjoy!
