Notes on the Wine
Guava and pear meld harmoniously with the wet stone, lemon zest and peach pit aromas found in this Sauvignon Blanc. Vibrant and mouth-watering SweeTART® character allows the pear and melon fruit to shine on the palate. A rich almost creamy entry is tantalizing with mineral and a touch of Sauvignon Musqué flamboyance on the finish. Easy to enjoy with ceviche served with avocado & tortilla chips!
Notes on the Producer
In 1976, industry pioneer Bruce Markham acquired his first 230 acres of Napa Valley vineyards, and founded Markham Vineyards the following year. In 1980, Markham crafted its first vintage of Napa Valley Merlot—becoming only the fourth winery in Napa Valley to make varietal Merlot—and a decade later, Markham’s flagship bottling was named “Merlot of the Year” by Wine Spectator. Today, Markham continues to be recognized for making benchmark Napa Valley Merlots, as well as Cabernet Sauvignon, Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Crafted by longtime Winemaker Kimberlee Nicholls, using grapes from 350 acres of estate vineyards in Yountville, Oak Knoll and Calistoga, Markham’s wines have earned acclaim for their vineyard-inspired complexity and character. Markham proudly holds the Napa Green Land, Napa Green Winery, and Fish Friendly Farming certifications. Markham is proud to support the Gary Sinise Foundation with a charitable donation, in their mission to serve and honor our defenders, veterans, first responders and those in need. Markham also proudly supports A Fine Line because we champion women’s empowerment and equality across all industries.
