Markham Sauvignon Blanc 2022

"Clos de Napa Sauvignon Blanc boasts aromas that brim with tropical fruit and citrus notes intertwined with nuances of white flowers. On the palate there are intense layers of pineapple, grapefruit, tangerine and orange blossom." —winemaker

"The color is pale shiny yellow. The aroma is delicate with fine gooseberries, fresh dandelions, and lime. The mouthfeel is elegant yet vibrant with fine green apple notes and great balance between the nice fruit, like ripe kiwi and honeydew melon and the playful acidity. There are nice layers of skin characters and lovely lees notes backed by classic minerality giving great structure to the long lip-smacking finish. The perfect wine to pair with food, especially oysters!" —winemaker

"This Western-clone Sauvignon Blanc from cool climate Napa Carneros is full of orange blossom, papaya and white pepper aromas. Juicy passionfruit, Key lime and lemongrass notes on the palate are tinged with crystalized ginger and white floral notes. The texture leads with bright acidity while softer edges follow through the mid palate to a high-toned finish." —winemaker

"The 2022 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc is bright, crisp, and refreshing with aromatic notes of white peach, lemon verbena, lime peel, and white elderflower. More subtle notes of brioche toast and biscuit crumb support the lively fruit (a nod to the subtle oak influence) alongside a delicate mineral flintiness. The palate is rich, creamy, and round with notes of Meyer lemon, green apple, lime pith, cassis bud, and lychee. There is a zippy, racy acidity throughout, creating a mouthwatering texture and lively backbone that carries all the way through to the long, lip-smackingly crisp finish." —winemaker

"This white wine has aromas of fresh pineapple, white lily, jasmine, and passion fruit. It has flavors of honeydew melon, peach, and citrus blossom. It is light on the palate but flavor dense." —winemaker

"This vibrant Sauvignon Blanc offers an enticing medley of tropical and citrus aromas, including pineapple, lemon verbena, lime and guava. The palate is lush and lively, combining a silky texture and energetic acidity with fresh melon, citrus, and pineapple flavors framed by subtle minerality throughout a long, bright finish." —winemaker

"Racy pomelo, guava and lime join in chorus with a sweet pea note. A Honeycrisp apple by mouth, this exuberant youngster is of a seamless, delicate, and symmetrical weave." —winemaker

"In the glass the wine is the delicate color of pale straw. The nose hints at the classic Sauvignon Blanc flavors to follow: white peach, gooseberry, melon, guava, wildflowers, and damp slate. Fruit forward and crisp, this rich and mineral-driven wine exhibits balanced acidity with a satisfyingly long finish." —winemaker
