Tasting Notes
This is not your typical Sauvignon Blanc. The 2022 Subject To Change Skin Ferment surprises with a glowing golden-orange hue and a boldly aromatic nose. On the palate, you’ll find layers of dried apricot, citrus peel, white tea, and honeyed stone fruit, balanced by savory spice and a gently grippy texture. The finish is dry, slightly tannic, and persistent—inviting another sip.
Winemaker Notes
Aromas
-
Bright and lifted, with orange blossom, jasmine, grapefruit zest, and a touch of fresh ginger.
Palate
-
Medium-bodied with complex notes of kumquat, white peach, and chamomile. A slight tannic grip from skin contact adds structure without overpowering freshness.
Finish
-
Clean, mineral-driven, and herbal, leaving a lasting impression of citrus oil and saline minerality.
Crafted with native yeast fermentation and extended skin contact, this wine was aged in neutral oak and bottled unfined and unfiltered. No sulfur added.
Food Pairing Suggestions
This skin-contact Sauvignon Blanc pairs beautifully with a wide range of dishes:
-
Spiced Moroccan tagines or roasted root vegetables
-
Grilled halloumi or feta with citrus and herbs
-
Charred fish tacos with mango salsa
-
Miso-glazed eggplant or Korean BBQ tofu
-
Aged sheep's milk cheese or Manchego
Its tannic backbone and bright acidity allow it to stand up to bold flavors, fermented dishes, and even heat.
