2020 as you wish Old Vines Sauvignon Blanc
Aromas of ripe lime, white flowers and wet stone explode on the nose, framed by mouthwatering acidity. This vintage of as you wish Old Vines Sauvignon Blanc is packed with rich flavors of white peaches, guava, Meyer lemon, herbs and minerals. An age worthy version of sauvignon blanc that will develop in the bottle for years. From old vines planted in 1985 at Gamache Vineyard, a truly special bottle of wine.
Food pairing: Dungeness crab and lemon butter or asparagus and goat cheese quiche.
Movie pairing: The Princess Bride, duh
FOUNDERS’ NOTES:
as you wish was added to our staggering* portfolio in the 2017 vintage. Relatively little old vine sauvignon blanc remains in Washington State, so we are privileged to gain access to this old block farmed by the stellar vineyard team at Sagemoor Farms.Sourced from remarkable gnarly old vines, planted in 1985 at Gamache Vineyard (as I was working in the dining room at Commander’s Palace in New Orleans), as you wish is a unique expression of sauvignon blanc, sure to astonish even the most erudite wine lovers.
