Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

The 2021 Captûre Sauvignon Blanc from high atop Pine Mountain is as fresh and intriguing as the vineyard itself. Explosive aromas of key lime, freshly squeezed lemon juice, and pineapple slowly subside allowing the softer notes of white peach, green apple, lemon meringue and orange blossom guide you into the glass. The aroma isn’t complete without the vineyards trademark hint of savory mountain scrub best described as soft chamomile or dried sage. On the palate, the first sip is electric. The natural acidity is extremely bright and showcased by the varieties trademark citrus fruits, which are then joined by more floral and tropical flavors that battle to be the most pronounced the longer you explore. The initial flavors then give way to minerality, an elegant texture and an overall softness that is achieved through lees stirring and is the secret in balancing the high acidity. This balancing act is what makes this wine so mouthwatering and almost irresistible for that next sip.

Capable of a vast array of styles, Sauvignon Blanc is a crisp, refreshing variety that equally reflects both terroir and varietal character. Though it can vary depending on where it is grown, a couple of commonalities always exist—namely, zesty acidity and intense aromatics. This variety is of French provenance. Somm Secret—Along with Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc is a proud parent of Cabernet Sauvignon. That green bell pepper aroma that all three varieties share is no coincidence—it comes from a high concentration of pyrazines (herbaceous aromatic compounds) inherent to each member of the family.
