2022 Peirson Meyer Ryan’s Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc Oak Knoll Napa Valley

WSI94 WA93 The barrel fermented and matured 2022 Sauvignon Blanc Ryan’s Vineyard has gregarious scents of pineapple, peach and kiwi with notes of tarragon, citrus blossoms and beeswax. The palate is satiny and mouth coating with generous, concentrated flavor layers, a bright spine of acidity and a long, flavorful finish. It drinks well on its own and will develop complexity in bottle over the next 5+ years.
Estate Notes: With delicate fruit blossom aromas, the palate opens to notes of creamy lemon, sweet spice and spring mint. The wine shows a clean, subtle entry on the palate with a luscious texture and a focused acidity; a perfect balance, lively and fresh in its infancy, then mellowing and building body with age. Neutral barrels. 124 cases produced.
