Chalk Hill Sauvignon Blanc is a barrel-fermented white wine from the Chalk Hill AVA in Sonoma County, California. The blend is 90% Sauvignon Blanc, 4% Sauvignon Gris, 3% Sauvignon Musqué and 3% Semillon, fermented in new French oak, neutral oak and stainless steel, then aged in barrel for roughly seven to ten months. This gives it more richness and complexity than most Sauvignon Blancs, which are usually fermented in stainless steel and released soon after harvest.
The nose opens with white flowers and citrus peel, then passion fruit, guava and honeydew melon, with wet stone and toast underneath. On the palate it is lush and ripe, with guava, mango and grapefruit zest, a fuller texture and notes of thyme, fennel, cucumber and jicama, kept taut by balanced acidity. The finish is long and elegant, with Meyer lemon, mineral notes, a faint hint of ginger and a whisper of toasty oak.
