Winery Notes:
Like 2018 before it, 2019 was another stellar growing season in Napa Valley, producing slightly smaller yields displaying a marvelous blend of energy and richness. Late spring rains gave way to a moderate growing season, with few extremes and consistent morning fog. The vintage’s long hangtime culminated in an especially warm fall that teased out further concentration to complement the fully developed flavors and fresh acidity. Overall, the 2019 vintage gave us beautifully balanced, richly flavored and brightly focused wines.

From the producer's Lovall Valley estate, this white is given time in mostly concrete egg, with a small amount of French oak influence. Richly textured and complex, with a velvety mouthfeel and ample ripeness, it shows dense layers of anise, apple and pear.

The 2019 Sauvignon Blanc Double Eagle is a pretty, tropical, medium-bodied Sauvignon delivering good balance, bright acidity, and a clean finish. It’s ideal for drinking over the coming couple of years.
