La Carrodilla "Ir y Venir" Sauvignon Blanc 2023

The 2023 "Ir y Venir" is a brilliantly crisp vintage for this white from the biodynamic organic Carrodilla winery. Those familiar with this wine will be surprised to find that the 2023 is a 100% Sauvignon Blanc rather than a blend of Sauv and Chenin as it has been for many years. In this vintage, ample sunlight and a balanced growing season combined with a winter that was sufficiently cold and wet to keep the vines dormant until the early spring to create a wine with elegance and vigor beyond its pedigree. Lighter on the tropical notes found in many of the Sauvignon Blancs from this region, here one finds more the high citrus notes of lemon and lemongrass layered in with grapefruit, white peach, fresh cut lawn and honeydew melon. This is delicious right out of the gate but will age nicely for four to five years. 

700 cases produced.
