Selby Winery, Healdsburg, CA

Tasting Notes

Loaded with rich concentrated flavors of melon, minerals and lemon-lime nuances that trickle crisp and clean on the palate. Ending with a snappy well rounded finish. Enjoy with a broad array of cuisine or simply as an aperitif.

2008 Selby Sauvignon Blanc
Sonoma County

The beauty of stainless steel fermented Sauvignon Blanc is that it can pair wonderfully with all kinds of food or stand on it's own because it is so approachable. But the trick is to make it interesting by extracting its concentrated flavors and balancing them with a crisp clean finish. The final touch? A delicate kiss of Semillon.
