Once sippped, there are soft, textured flavors of lemon zest, tangy green apple, pink grapefruit and melon. Slightly effervescant, it dances on the tongue. This wine makes you happy. Like a joyful choir. EARTH: At the southeastern end of the Russian River Valley, a zip code chock-full of prestigious vineyards, the Shone Farm site is ideal for growing Sauvignon Blanc. The four acre, Block 3 parcel has those low pH soils so important to the acid development of Sauvignon Blanc grapes. Pleasanton Rocky Loam soil, along with the southern facing slope help ripen the fruit flavors while maintaining the acid needed for a well balanced wine. A fairly new vineyard, the younger vines give the wine freshness and minerality. This parcel of Shone Farm is farmed organically using Stellar-certified sustainable grape growing methods. <div aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">MAN: Grapes were hand harvested at night to keep the flavors bright and fresh. The juice was whole-cluster pressed using a Champagne-style press that encourages free run, clean juice. It was tank-settled at low temperatures, racked clean to fermentation tanks, then fermented slowly with native yeasts from the vineyard. The Sauvignon Blanc sat on the lees for four and a half months to impart a rich mouthfeel. These methods reveal a brighter, more elegant wine with fewer particles in suspension.</div> <div aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"> </div> <div aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">NATURE: In this vineyard, we work closely with the powers of sun and wind. As a grape cluster develops, it's shielded from direct sun by the shade of a grape leaf or two above it, avoiding direct sun exposure, so the temperature of the surrounding air gently encourages cluster development and gentle ripening. Here, the wind is a critical component aiding grape and vine health. We use the trellising system to encourage a wind tunnel-like space at the center of the vine. This keeps fresh, healing air moving through the plant, even in the heart of summer.</div> <div aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"> </div> <div aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">To learn more about the Signaterra brand, </div> <div aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0">please visit us at: <a aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0" href="http://www.signaterra.com/">www.signaterra.com</a></div> <div aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"> </div> <div aria-level="0" aria-posinset="0" aria-setsize="0"> </div> <LI>SKU: 596708 Other products in the category <A HREF="http://www.nexternal.com/benziger/Category57" TITLE="Signaterra Benziger">Signaterra Benziger</A>: <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/benziger/Product832 TITLE="2006 Signaterra 3-Blocks, Bordeaux Blend">2006 Signaterra 3-Blocks, Bordeaux Blend</A> -- 2006 Signaterra 3-Blocks, Bordeaux Blend <LI><A HREF=http://www.nexternal.com/benziger/Product873 TITLE="2008 Benziger 'Casey's Block' Sauvignon Blanc, Mendocino County (750ml)">2008 Benziger 'Casey's Block' Sauvignon Blanc, Mendocino County (750ml)</A> -- In 2008, floral aromas introduce the wine while; the crisp structure is poised against flavors of green apple, white peach, grapefruit and lime.
