Arnot-Roberts, Sauvignon Blanc Ascona Vineyard Santa Cruz Mountains, 2023

$59.99

In stock and ready to ship

Arnot-Roberts has built a reputation for seeking out exceptional vineyard sites and making bold, expressive wines. Ascona Vineyard sits at 2,500 feet on a ridgetop in the Santa Cruz Mountains, just 15 miles from the Pacific—a position that channels the ocean's influence into the grapes. This small 4.5-acre vineyard, planted in 2000 on what was once a Christmas tree farm, commands both sunshine and fog, creating ideal tension. The 2023 Sauvignon Blanc sings with that coastal character: wet stone and salinity thread through layers of lemony green apple, with a lithe, energetic body. This is Sauvignon Blanc shaped by place—not fruit alone.
