Lot 557
2024 Paso Robles Sauvignon Blanc

Around $50/bottle under the original label

Lot 557 is a refreshing and refined 100% estate-grown Sauvignon Blanc. Only a handful of houses in Paso craft Sauv Blancs of this caliber, so to protect our source, we agreed to declassify it from Adelaida District and keep its exact price under wraps. Though yields were lower in this vintage, the grapes that made their way to the cellars boasted immense concentration and peak ripeness – a great omen for the 2024 Paso vintage.

The nose bursts with a tropical exuberance, presenting wet stone and lime wrapped in layers of guava and passionfruit, with a subtle thread of chervil and slate. The palate entry is full-flavored for a Sauvignon Blanc, driven by grapefruit and additional tropical fruits with a kiss of ginger spice, all framed by a bracing acidity. The finish is mineral-laced and resolutely clean, tapering off with long, tropical umami accents with hints of apple blossom.
