Grounded Wine Co.
Sauvignon Blanc
Full bodied but not naked, the style of Josh Phelps' California Sauvignon Blanc is fresh and zesty, blending cool-climate parcels that lean into that lean mineral-driven style with fruit from warmer climes giving a Bordeaux-like ripeness that gives a more tropical and full bodied richness. The aromas range from white peach to passion fruit and guava highlighted by high tones of fresh lime and meyer lemon. On the palate, it's alive and refreshing with a long finish of lingering jasmine, green apple, and bosc pearl.
