WINE DESCRIPTION
Bishop's Peak Sauvignon Blanc is a zesty, dry white wine coming the Edna Valley in California's Central Coast region. The vineyards benefit from cool ocean breezes and well-drained soils which helps the grapes retain acidity whilst developing excellent flavor concentration. The winemaking process involves gentle pressing, followed by fermentation in inert vessels to retain the bright varietal character. The resulting wine is crisp, refreshing, and vibrant, with notes of citrus, tropical fruits, and a hint of herbaceousness.
NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Bishop's Peak Sauvignon Blanc displays a pale medium golden color in the glass.On pouring, the nose bursts with an enticing bouquet of grapefruit, lime, and tropical fruits. On the palate, it offers a harmonious balance between the citrus notes and a subtle herbaceousness, creating a refreshing and invigorating experience. The firm acid backbone drives the clean and satisfyingly dry finish, leaving a pleasant impression.

ORIGINS
Winery: Bishop's Peak
Region: Central Coast California
The Central Coast of California is a wine lover's paradise, boasting a wide variety of climates, soils, and grape varieties. Located between San Francisco and Los Angeles, the Central Coast spans from Monterey County in the north to Santa Barbara County in the south. With its diverse topography and Mediterranean climate, the Central Coast is home to some of the most renowned wineries in the United States.
The Central Coast has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The first vineyards were planted in the Santa Clara Valley, and by the late 1800s, the region was producing some of the finest wines in the country. The region's reputation for quality wines was further solidified in the early 1989, when the Santa Clara Valley was declared among the first American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the United States.CUSTOMER RATING
