Alma de Cattleya 2021 Sauvignon Blanc, Sonoma County 92 Points

Tasting Notes: Medium intensity, light yellow with a greenish hue.  Complex nose of kiwi and guava with wet stone and gunpowder after tones. A touch of champagne-like yeastiness finishing with nuances of exotic tropical fruit. Pure and intense on the pallet with a little flinty touch. Fully dry with a medium body. Diamond-like purity and intensity. The finish is zesty and full of minerals. 

Winemaker Notes: “ Bursting with notes of ripe melon, Key lime, and grapefruit, this wine is bright, refreshingly crisp, possesses ample texture, and begs for a second glass. This Sauvignon Blanc is a true expression of the influence of the Pacific Ocean breezes in Sonoma County’s grape-growing region. Zesty and bright, the exceptional intensity of lemon zest, grapefruit, verbena, and citrus blossoms aromatics are an impressive aperture to a gorgeous mouthfeel with centered acidity and a luscious finish. Enjoy now and for years to come.”

Wine Spectator 92 Points: “Aromatic, intense, and, distinctive, delivering mouthwatering lemongrass, Meyer lemon, pomelo, and white grapefruit flavors, with an intriguing touch of litsea oil that lingers on the fresh finish. Drink now.”
