2022 Sauvignon Blanc

White Wine

A flagship wine of Maverick Estate Winery

Known for its vibrant tropical notes and energetic palate the 2022 vintage builds on this Maverick classic. Whole cluster pressed South Okanagan fruit that is steel fermented and a portion finished in neutral barrels yields a wine that is sure to fill your glass throughout the season with aromatic intensity and gently weighted texture

Exotic nose of guava, pineapple, sage and fresh mint. Beautiful complexity here that marries the pungent nose of Sauvignon Blanc fermented in stainless steel with the lovely baking spice notes of the brief barrel fermented components. The palate has a bright lime and star fruit quality and layers of pie crust and key lime pie notes. The oak and fruit intermingle to give a bit more weight to this otherwise very bright and refreshing white

Stelvin® closure

This is a multidimensional Sauvignon Blanc offering texture and richness vis a vis a bright and tangy acidity! Stainless steel fermentation was used with a touch of barrel ferment. This exciting combination offers aromas of tropical fruits but also the traditional pink grapefruit and lime that you should expect from a good and complex Sauv Blanc. On the palate, flavours of passion fruit and pineapple come right before a hint of orange blossom, sweet citrus and green apple. The finish brings a hint of tartness, orange peel-like, and light spices, which add extra layers of complexity and a distinctive salinity to close out a sensational experience. Verdict: This is a FANTASTIC wine, putting the potential of this grape varietal in the South Okanagan on full display…. a real Maverick Classic. 92 points – Carl’s Wine Club
