WINE DESCRIPTION
Honig Sauvignon Blanc Late Harvest is a luscious and complex dessert wine produced by Honig Vineyard & Winery in Napa Valley, California. The grapes are sourced from the estate's sustainably farmed vineyards, which are located in the heart of the Rutherford appellation. The wine is made using a combination of traditional and modern winemaking techniques, including hand-harvesting, whole-cluster pressing, and barrel fermentation. The resulting wine is rich and full-bodied, with aromas of honey, apricot, and citrus, and flavors of ripe peach, honeydew melon, and vanilla. Its balanced acidity and long finish make it a perfect pairing for fruit-based desserts or blue cheese.
