Winemaker Notes
Aromas of soft, ripe tropical fruit greet your nose as you savor this classic Sauvignon Blanc. Tangerine and lime zest, lemon and minerals round out the multi-layered aromatic components. The palate reveals additional flavors of grapefruit and honeydew melon.
Girard Winery picked the fruit fully ripe to provide classic tropical, citrus and floral aromas with a lush mouthfeel and excellent acidity. This all adds up to an extremely food friendly wine that is just as enjoyable on its own.

For the past 40 years, Girard has been singularly dedicated to ensuring balance in their wines. This is achieved by meticulously focusing on making choices that respect the grapes and Napa Valley heritage at each step of the winemaking process. They work closely with long-time growers in both mountain and valley vineyards to ensure vines are nurtured to develop balanced sugar and acidity in the grapes when it comes time to harvest. In their state-of-the-art winery, they employ innovative barrel technology to bring out the ripe fruit characteristics during the fermentation and aging process. The dedication to quality throughout the winemaking process is evident in the consistently award-winning wines that offer richness, complexity and balance in each sip.
