Capture Sauvignon Tradition Blanc is a gorgeous white wine gem from Sonoma County in California. The winery’s flagship wine, Tradition Sauvignon Blanc elevates the purity of the variety through stainless steel fermentation and ten months of sur lie aging. The result is an expression of bright citrus such as lime peel, white stone fruit, and green apple fragrances. The vineyards highlight the ideal characteristics of Sauvignon Blanc with mineral texture, brilliant acidity, and a fresh finish.
“Bordeaux-like with its crisp citrus, lemon, and white flower bouquet, the 2018 Sauvignon Blanc Tradition is medium-bodied, vibrant and pure on the palate, with beautiful purity and freshness. It's impeccably made and well worth drinking. This comes mostly from Sonoma County yet has close to a fourth from Lake County.”—Jeb Dunnuck, 91 points!
“The 2018 Sauvignon Blanc Tradition comes 76% from Alexander Valley and 24% from Lake County, made in stainless steel with lees stirring. It offers gregarious scents of tarragon, chive and mown grass with kiwi, gooseberry, white peaches, flint and lychee notes. The palate is light-bodied and lively with pure fruits, bright acidity and a long, refreshing finish. 7,500 cases produced.”—Wine Advocate, 90 points!
