A true reflection of place. Grapes selected for our Oakville Fumé Blanc were grown on low fertility, well-drained soils with optimal sun exposure, enabling development of rich, complex flavors and astounding fruit maturity.

Fresh, vibrant passionfruit, white peach, and mango. Mouthcoating and opulent, with a lingering finish.

Ripe tropical fruits, tarragon, jasmine, and toasted almond

ABV 14.5%

Vintage 2020

Appellation Oakville, Napa Valley

Varietal Composition 94% Sauvignon Blanc, 6% Sémillon

Pairs well with spring rolls with nước chấm and cioppino.

We selected fruit primarily from two blocks from our To Kalon Vineyard, where well-draining soils result in low yields of deeply concentrated fruit. Fruit from the V-Block makes up the core, with a splash of our old I-Block adding complexity. While the V-Block is younger, it is grafted to budwood from the I-Block. A small amount of Sémillon complements the Sauvignon Blanc’s vibrant fruit and acidity by adding roundness with a creamy texture.
