Tasting Notes
This brilliantly clear, pale-straw-colored Sauvignon Blanc is bright and crisp. The wine opens with complex aromas of fresh straw, green papaya, lime leaf, pink grapefruit, green apple, lemon grass, honeysuckle, and wet stone. Refreshing, forward, zesty flavors of lime, lemon, grapefruit, white peach, and passion fruit follow with bright acidity. The finish is long and full with hints of lime and minerals. 98% Sauvignon Blanc, 2% Semillon
Vineyard Notes
2016 was a great growing season for white varietals. A mild spring with light rains and good weather at an early flowering set up an extended growing/ripening season. Moderate to warm temperatures—88–95˚F during the day with cool nights and foggy mornings—allowed for slow, gentle ripening, giving full fruit expression while maintaining brilliant minerality. Harvest lasted about one month, commencing on August 22 and wrapping up on September 19. Brix at harvest was between 20.4 and 25 degrees.
Winemaker Notes
SIMI Sauvignon Blanc is everything a wine made from this noble grape should be. A small amount of Semillon was blended in to contribute additional richness to the palate. We fermented and aged 100% of this wine in stainless steel to guarantee classic, clean, and lively Sauvignon Blanc.
Food Pairing Notes
SIMI Winery Executive Chef Kolin Vazzoler suggests pairing this wine with goat cheese ravioli with spiced tomato sauce, crab gazpacho, mussels Provençal, or smoked salmon with capers, lemon, and red onion. It's also a great apéritif with prosciutto and melon, goat cheese, or raw oysters.
