Description
From the winery: The 2023 vintage was produced from fruit grown on the western bench of Dry Creek Valley, 200 feet above the valley floor. The vineyard benefits from cool, foggy mornings and warm days. The significant temperature difference between day and night extends the growing season, fostering slow grape maturation and intense flavor development.
Winemaking: Hand-harvested on August 28, 2023 at 24 degrees brix, the fruit for the 2023 vintage in Dry Creek Valley was gently whole cluster pressed separately. The juice was carefully transferred to a stainless steel tank to chill and allowed to settle for 48 hours, achieving optimal clarification. Following this, the wine was transferred to stainless steel for aging. After fermentation, the wines were expertly blended to create a perfectly balanced white blend.
Tasting Notes: Named in honor of our oldest granddaughter Miyah, now 8 years old, this distinctive blend of Sauvignon Blanc and Picpoul captivates with an enchanting medley of crisp citrus and tropical fruit aromas. Bright floral notes, lemon meringue, pear, and stone fruits dance on the palate, creating a harmonious symphony of flavors. The Picpoul contributes a subtle richness and complexity, while the blend’s zesty backbone of acidity unveils a refreshing brightness on the finish.
