Blue Rock Baby Blue Blanc Sonoma County 2022 750 ML

Baby Blue Blanc walks a tightrope that delivers the best qualities of Sauvignon Blanc, bright acidity and freshness, yet tempered by the addition of Viognier and Semillon in order to enhance the texture, something that remains elusive to most Sauvignon Blanc bottled on its own.\n\nHere the subtlest shade of pale straw radiates with a purity that seems to first absorb and then reflect back all the light in the room. The sensory dance continues with pristine aromas of white peach, orange blossom, honeysuckle, and lemongrass, all seamlessly integrated into a fragrant and harmonious whole.\n\nTasting the wine reveals a burst of grapefruit, with lychee, tangerine, and rainier cherry, followed by a subtle minerality. However, what distinguishes this wine from other Sauvignon Blancs is its texture; all at once light yet rich in mouthfeel throughout with a lingering and refreshing acidity.\n\nSauvignon Blanc has a place at the table all year long. Spring and summer come to mind first with fresh veggies, fruits, ceviche, oysters, grilled white fish, poultry and anything else light and refreshing. And then the wonderful truth is that fall and winter also provide ample opportunity to celebrate this delightful varietal. The trick is to seek purity and balance in your winter flavors, where you taste each component on the plate, such as herbed potatoes, fried chicken, whole baked fish and the like, all hearty but well delineated. Fun to explore all year round!
