2023 Pearl Sauvignon Blanc
This vintage of Pearl Sauvignon Blanc is loaded with aromas of minerally melon, lemon zest, tarragon, and fresh cut hay. Mouthwatering acidity envelopes delicious flavors of kiwi, lemongrass, chamomile, honeysuckle, white grapefruit, and honeydew melon. Like the Phoenix, Pearl rises with intense, balanced, electric and arresting complexity.
Food Pairing: Anything from the ocean, but oysters for sure. Shigokus and kushis are the best.
Movie Pairing: The Wizard of Oz
FOUNDERS’ NOTES:
Pearl was Kelly's first solo wine project, spawned in 2009 from her love of New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs. Pearl was named in honor of Kelly's great grandmother who drove around in a pearl Cadillac convertible and drank Tennessee whiskey. The style is both mineral and fruit driven, like if Sancerre and New Zealand made a Sauvignon Blanc baby.
