Scattered Peaks Fume Blanc 2022

From Scattered Peaks, a winery focused on the rich terroir of Napa Valley, this Fumé Blanc offers a distinctly Californian expression of Sauvignon Blanc. The term "Fumé Blanc," originally coined by Robert Mondavi, signifies a barrel-aged style of Sauvignon Blanc, and this wine follows that tradition. The grapes are sourced from prime vineyard sites within Napa Valley. The winemaking is designed to build texture and complexity; the juice is fermented and aged in oak barrels, which softens the grape's herbaceous notes and adds layers of spice and richness, creating a more powerful and complex white wine.
