Voss Sauvignon Blanc 2011

The 2010 Sauvignon Blanc displays classic varietal aromas, flavors and texture. Aromas of lemon peel, grapefruit and pineapple combine with a hint of spice and mineral, leading to a delightful combination of intense and exotic fruit flavors across the palate. The wine shows a lovely fullness in the palate from the skin contact before pressing and the addition of a small percentage of the wine that was barrel fermented, resulting in a lingering finish that is bright and crisp.
12% alc.

“The 2010 Sauvignon Blanc is a great expression of intense flavors and aromas.
The skin contact in the press and fermenting 4 separate lots using a combination of yeasts provides the opportunity to make a wine of great varietal character. The addition of a small portion of wine fermented in neutral
barrels added another dimension to the wine on the palate” -Michael Lancaster, Voss winemaker 2010.
