Miller Ranch Sauvignon Blanc "Napa Valley"

In 1981, Ron and Diane Miller established Silverado Vineyards in the heart of Stags Leap District. Over the years, they expanded their estate to include six distinctive vineyards in the Napa Valley and Carneros. The beautiful fruit from these ranches is the exclusive source of Silverado Vineyards’ Estate and Single Vineyard wines.

Winemaking Notes :

Grapes were harvested at an average sugar of 21.9◦ Brix. The juice was inoculated with three distinct yeast strains that help release aromas specific to Sauvignon Blanc. Fermentation took place in stainless steel tanks at 50-55 degrees Fahrenheit. To highlight the wine’s intense aromatics the wine did not undergo malolactic fermentation. The Semillon was blended to enhance the mouthfeel and balance acidity.
