Item Description
"Our Sauvignon Blanc is known to bring red wine drinkers back to the white wine table"
Tasting Notes: Beautiful aromas of white peach, Meyer lemon, guava and citrus blossoms explode from the glass. A great balance of fresh acidity and creamy texture highlight the juicy ripe nectarine and key lime sorbet flavors that go on and on and on! All the result of Pam’s unparalleled approach to capturing the pure ripe juice of Napa Sauvignon Blanc!
Crocker & Starr grows the five Bordeaux varietals (cabernet sauvignon, cabernet franc, merlot, petit verdot and malbec) as well as sauvignon blanc from an 85-acre estate vineyard that has been continuously farmed since the 1870s. The vineyard lies in the St. Helena Appellation just south of town and is comprised of alluvial soils that gradually change as the terrain gently slopes down toward the Napa River. Years have been dedicated to organic farming to improve the already superior soil. The complex and varied components of our soils, which enjoy excellent drainage that forces vines to draw deeply from the earth, express themselves in powerful and balanced wines.
Our twenty+ year-old vines are sustainably and responsibly grown and farmed. We farm organically and are working toward a self-sustaining vineyard that regenerates itself without interference. The vines are hand tended during the growing season and hand-picked at harvest. Harvest is always at night so grapes arrive cool for crushing. Extraordinary attention is paid to the health of the vineyard: we have established a border of wildflowers to harbor good bugs, planted organic crimson clover for honeybees, and created a buffer zone between the Napa River (where the bad bugs live) and the vineyard. We frequently release ladybugs.
