The Pairing - Sauvignon Blanc - Santa Barbara

Description

Overview: The Paring was born in 2006 out of a desire to explore, experiment and excite—without rules. Made from the vineyard blocks that are either too young or don't fit into the vintage style of the highly acclaimed JONATA and The Hilt wines—The Paring is a cut of each estate.  The Paring puts pedigree first, and then lets imagination take over.

The grapes are sourced primarily from three Santa Barbara regions on the vanguard:  Santa Ynez Valley, Sta. Rita Hills and Santa Maria Valley.

Tasting Notes: Few Sauvignon Blanc wines this youthful can also boast this level of complexity. The nose is deliciously exotic, with lemon, melon and white peach soaring out of the glass. The wine’s laser beam of acidity refreshes and cleanses the palate, while its decadent texture demands another mouthwatering sip. Perfect for those warm nights on the patio.

Pairing: Green vegetables
