2023 En Cavale Sauvignon Contra Costa Sauvignon Blanc

En Cavale’s 2023 Contra Costa Sauvignon Blanc captures the vineyard’s sun-drenched sand and cooling delta winds in feather-light form. Hand-picked fruit undergoes native-yeast fermentation in stainless steel, locking in electric acidity and crystalline aromatics. A quick swirl on fine lees adds satin texture without dulling freshness, so flavors sprint: lime peel, honeydew, and brisk sea-spray minerality. No fining, filtering, or flashy oak—just pure coastal California energy bottled for weekday spontaneity or white-tablecloth poise. Chill generously, pour generously, and watch bright conversation flow.

Nose: Lime blossom, grapefruit pith, and cut honeydew rise over a cool hint of wet river stone.

Palate: Juicy key-lime and crisp pear glide across a sleek frame, sparked by lemongrass and subtle sea salt.

Finish: Long, razor-clean finish echoes citrus oil, chalk dust, and a refreshing saline snap.

Delicious with shellfish, tangy salads, and fresh cheeses—enjoy alongside oysters on the half shell, goat-cheese and arugula salad with lemon vinaigrette, or Thai basil shrimp skewers where the wine’s zesty lift sharpens every bite.
