2018 ELLMAN NAPA VALLEY SAUVIGNON BLANC
$45.00 $45.00
Undiscovered wineries with top-level winemaking, and great vineyard sourcing usually means you need to move quickly, because they rarely stay undetected for long. We introduced Ellman last Fall and the winery already has a following in our shop. The wines are made by Andy Erickson, Screaming Eagle winemaker from ’05 – ’10, and he also makes Mayacamas which just ranked #2 in the recent Wine Spectator Top 100.
Cut from the winery’s Estate vineyard in the foothills of Atlas Peak, the 2018 Ellman Sauvignon Blanc stands out for having stunning clarity and remarkable balance. It was kept for just 7 months in neutral barrels, which preserved the purity and vibrancy of fruit. The style is clean and focused, with defined impressions of shaved lemons, ripe tangerine, citrus oil and white flowers. It’s truly stunning.
Napa Valley Vintners described the 2018 vintage as a “Seamless season of heavenly hangtime and phenomenal phenolic development.” The mild temperatures resulted in gradual increases in sugar levels, which are ideal for perfectly ripening grapes and optimally developed flavors. If you’re looking for an truly stunning 2018 Sauvignon Blanc that’s made by a world-class winemaker, this is it…

Winery Notes: “The 2018 Caryn Renae Sauvignon Blanc embodies the classic character of this varietal from head to toe – from its brilliant lemon hue to aromatics of gooseberry, boxwood and freshly cut grass, to young pineapple and lemon verbena. The myriad of citrus notes and white petaled flowers give way to a bright finish, with a focused yet expansive palate. It’s sure to evoke images of your favorite body of water, and endless summer days. Best enjoyed with your favorite fruits of the sea, and friends of course! Oysters on the half shell, anyone?”
