Outward Wines Presqu’ile Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, 2023

Presqu'ile Vineyard, located on the southwestern end of the Santa Maria Valley AVA, is a very cold and coastal site with a strong influence from the ocean. The vineyard is planted on ancient sand dunes and is certified organic.

The Sauvignon Blanc grape clusters were sent directly to the press and the juice underwent a native fermentation in neutral oak barrels. The wine was aged on the lees for 7 months before being bottled without fining or filtration.

The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc exhibits refreshing, cool-climate varietal expression. Subtle green tones and honeysuckle intertwine with citrus, gooseberry, and tropical notes to make for a very expressive nose, while the palate is held together with a firm core of bright acidity.
