Hourglass 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley
Rare new Sauvignon Blanc from Hourglass. Highly recommended
Hourglass is no ordinary California Sauvignon Blanc; it is more akin to a white Bordeaux with its texture, integrated, expressive fruit, and dry, limestone accent.
Primary aromas of Honeydew melon, Meyer lemon zest and peach blossom with bright notes of Granny Smith apple, spearmint and fresh cut hay. On the palate, limeade, lemon meringue and Pippin apple intertwine with notes of brioche, honey and chamomile flowers. The addition of 5% Semillon, along with judicious barrel fermentation and frequent lees stirring, create beautiful texture and depth, with bright acidity and chalky minerality providing precision and balance on the long, lively finish.
The Hourglass 2023 Sauvignon Blanc is aromatically explosive. Primary aromas of candied lime peel, mango, Meyer lemon, pomelo, and lemon grass emerge from the glass. Secondary characteristics of orange marmalade, honeysuckle, and fresh baked croissant offer an additional layer of richness and complexity. On the palate crisp zippy citrus tones and jasmine blossom weave with hints of brioche and wet stone minerality, providing nuance throughout. 15% Semillon gives further depth, and the mixture of steel and barrel fermentation contribute unparalleled texture and brightness.
