It’s All About the Limestone! The great Sauvignon Blanc vineyards of the Loire Valley lie on white rock, so Stolpman decided to plant an experimental 2 acre block on their Limestone outcropping back in 1999. After selling the grapes to other winemakers for a few years, Stolpman bottled its first Sauvignon Blanc from the 2008 vintage. Stolpman fell in love with the wine and have since grafted and own-rooted 8 more acres. After a few years of selling out before summer, Stolpman augmented their Estate fruit with a few of Ruben Solorzano’s other vineyards.
Ultra-aromatic sauv blanc zest and green apple blasting out of the glass. Complimented by touches of firm pear and a surge of lemon-lime, even tangerine citrus. One-Two-Three steps on the palate with acid leading, followed by mid palate weight, and closing with the quick return of quenching acidity. Packed into the crisp, light body, salinity and a subtle richness create a righteous, classically serious Sauvignon Blanc. From the powerhouse nose, through the body, and the lasting finish, the 2023 shows off Santa Barbara’s sun-kissed intensity. With air, Golden State hay emerges, making a case for the nobility of Cali Sauvignon Blanc.
