Kick Ranch rings it in again in ’22! This delightful Musqué Clone of the noble varietal blooms immediately with scents of dried pineapples and canned tropical fruits. With further time to open in the glass, nuances of lemon curd and dried apricots begin to emerge to the forefront. Even a bit of barrel tone from the 15% employed at onset throughout the 8 months of ageing on the wine. Mouthwatering flavors find themselves in the realm of green apple and tart yellow candies. Additional sips show an interesting mix of savory and Earth evolved flavors of clay dust and broken stones. I truly believe wine is served best with foods and this year’s Sauvignon Blanc is no exception to this statement as it will only draw out so many more things in the wine. Pair with hard, savory cheeses or a shrimp salad with tangy vinaigrette. Delicious!
A breezy and bright rosé reflective of its origins on those sunny windswept slopes of the vineyard. Wafts of cherry skin, strawberry purée, and red hard candy pique the nose, while layers of lavender oil and sea salt slip over the tongue. Some wines have grip, this one has charge… it’s almost electric.
