Sagemoor “Without Rehearsal” White Blend
WHY WE LOVE IT
- Without Rehearsal white is sourced from Bacchus, Gamache and Dionysus vineyards in the White Bluffs AVA.
- The winemaker is Aryn Morell.
- Sagemoor vineyards are certified sustainable through Sustainable WA or LIVE Certified.
Varietal: 89% Sauvignon Blanc, 11% Semillon
Elaboration: Bacchus, Dionysus and Gamache vineyards receives water from the Columbia Basin Irrigation Project. The vineyard utilizes drip irrigation with sprinklers used for frost control, cooling, and occasional irrigation. This drip irrigation enables us to use Regulated Deficit Irrigation (RDI).
Tasting Notes: Beautifully floral and dense with notes of citrus blossoms, lychee and crystallized lemon peel. The palate is a complex mixture of candied citrus and stone fruits with a hint of white tea and exemplary persistence.
