Jericho Canyon Sauvignon Blanc - 2008

Jericho Canyon Sauvignon Blanc

Winery Story

Jericho Canyon is a rugged area at the northeast end of the Napa Valley in the Mt. St. Helena foothills. It benefits from very hot summer da... (more...)ys moderated by cool nights and chilly mornings. These favorable conditions are caused by a break in the Mayacamas Range which allows the coastal fog to reach our end of the valley. The soils are a volcanic Boomer clay loam and gravelly loam, which provide excellent drainage while reducing the yields.

Tasting Note

2008 Sauvignon Blanc has appealing aromas of honeydew melon, kiwi, pineapple juice, and a charming minerality. With its ripe rich flavors, p... (more...)lush juicy core, and a vibrant fresh finish, this wine is a perfect companion to those summer barbeque's with friends.
