This Sauvignon Blanc was grown by Ryan Carr in the heart of the Los Olivos District in Santa Barbara County. Open Gate Vineyard has a fine, sandy loam soil with a mixture of rock and limestone. The warm days and cool nights make for ideal conditions for these grapes. The grapes were harvested by hand and then gently pressed. The wine was cold fermented in stainless steel to capture the incredible flavors this vineyard produced and then aged for five months. This Sauvignon Blanc opens with lemongrass and citrus on the nose, followed by crisp flavors of tropical fruit and toast on the palate. It's high acidity lingers on the tongue, while inviting you for more.
