Sean Minor 4 Bears Sauvignon Blanc

Tasting notes our sauvignon blanc is a golden straw color and displays aromas of lime orange blossom melon and grass and a touch of tropical fruit notes. On the entry the juicy grapefruit acidity integrates well with a medium body mid palate mouth feel. The kiwi green apple and peach flavors evolve into a hint of minerality that adds complexity to the finish. Winemaking notes our sauvignon blanc fruit was 100% whole-cluster pressed to minimize astringency from the skins. Once settled a portion of the juice was placed in a small neutral french oak barrels while the majority was moved to a stainless steel tanks for fermentation. This combination allows the wine to develop a balanced level of crispness. The wine in barrels is sur lie aged and stirred consistently. The final blend was a combination of lots that provided a perfect balance of richness bouquet and mouth feel. – sean minor
