Georgia is grown on a three acre, dry-farmed estate vineyard in Yountville. This exquisite, Graves-style (dry white Bordeaux) Sauvignon Blanc is fermented and aged in 100% French oak barrels for eighteen months. It displays unprecedented depth and complexity, amazing texture, and a long lingering finish. Lail Vineyards was the first winery in the New World to produce a Sauvignon Blanc in this complex and captivating style, beginning with the 2002 vintage. The proprietary name celebrates the first member of the sixth generation of our family’s winemaking in Napa Valley, Georgia Eileen. It has been called by a leading wine writer”…California’s most complex and multi-dimensional Sauvignon Blanc.”
WINEMAKER NOTES
“ Georgia Sauvignon Blanc 2022 is medium straw in color. Intense and lifted, the aromas burst forth with vanillin, white flowers and citrus zest notes. Flavors of white peach, dried apricot and tangerine envelop the palate. There are the hallmark Georgia expressions of minerality, white truffle and toasted brioche filling out the zingy and energetic finish. The oak is beautifully integrated, framing and enhancing this gorgeous wine like a fine painting.”
