Lot 539
2023 Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc

$45/bottle under the original label

Lot 539 is a supremely refreshing, fully expressive beauty fermented in stainless steel. Boasting a flavor profile rarely experienced elsewhere, it’s a testament to the wine’s terroir and sense of place. With only a handful of wineries bottling a 100% Sauvignon Blanc at this level in the Russian River Valley we have to be extra careful here to protect our source, but this is a highly-anticipated annual release that routinely lands in the mid-90s.

Opening with an elegant nose of jasmine blossom, lemongrass, lemon oil, and subtle matcha layered over a core of slate-driven minerality, the palate showcases impressive texture and precision, with medium+ acidity and notes of citrus essence, saline, and delicate spice enhancing the wine’s mineral backbone. The finish is clean and cohesive, echoing with wet river stone, citrus umami, and gentle thread of ginger-like spice. A truly unique experience in every sip.
