2023 Impensata Ciminelli Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc Howell Mountain

Last year when we released our first Sauvignon Blanc from our Howell Mountain estate vineyard, we were thrilled with its complexity, given the vines’ youth. This second release, the 2023 Ciminelli Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc confirms that first year was no beginner’s luck but a harbinger of great things to come. We blended Sauvignon Blanc with small amounts of Sauvignon Musqué and Semillon, and aged in a combination of new French oak and stainless steel to honor varietal character and this mountain terroir. Antonio Galloni noted, “A vibrant, striking wine, the 2023 is a reminder of how distinctive Sauvignon Blanc-based wines can be on Howell Mountain.”
