Region and Appellation: California
Product Description
From the iconic Peter Michael Winery, the 2022 L’Après-Midi redefines California Sauvignon Blanc with Bordeaux Blanc gravitas and New World vibrance. This 92% Sauvignon Blanc / 8% Sémillon blend showcases the estate’s mastery of cool-climate whites, balancing richness with razor-sharp precision.
Tasting Notes:
· Aroma: An explosive nose of lemon curd, pink grapefruit, and passionfruit, laced with honeysuckle, crushed flint, and yuzu zest
· Palate: Dense yet electric—unctuous tropical fruit meets a chalky mineral spine and mouthwatering acidity
· Finish: Pristine and persistent (30+ seconds), with a steely, Sancerre-like cut
Vineyard & Winemaking:
· Blend: 92% Sauvignon Blanc (Old Wente clone), 8% Sémillon
· Terroir: Knights Valley’s volcanic slopes (cooler than Napa)
· Fermentation: Native yeast in French oak (25% new)
· Aging: 6 months sur lie for texture
· Vintage: 2022’s long, even season preserved crisp acidity
