Clos du Soleil Washington Series Sauvignon Blanc 2024
Horse Heaven Hills, Columbia Valley, Washington, United StatesExpect green apple and grapefruit, with a palate featuring citrus and guava, accompanied by a creamy texture that persists throughout the finish. Dry and fresh, it pairs well with clams, oysters, or Brie. Clos du Soleil winemaker Michael Clark sourced his Sauvignon Blanc fruit from Washington's Horse Heaven Hills AVA, aligning it with the Similkameen style. The grapes were harvested by hand at peak ripeness and shipped to Clos du Soleil. The fruit is gently crushed and undergoes four hours of skin contact under dry ice before being pressed, lightly settled, and fermented in stainless steel tanks and French oak puncheons. The wine ages on its lees, with weekly lees stirring occurring for five months before bottling.Tasted: 28 May 2025Tasted by: Prices:| BC | $24.90 | 750ml | winery online/direct, select private retailers |
