2014 Wild Iris Sauvignon Blanc
CELEBRATING the 1Oth VINTAGE
With this tenth vintage, Wild Iris has developed quite a following. This luscious Napa Valley wine is an exceptional example of a warm climate, perfectly ripe, Sauvignon Blanc.
From the vineyard to the barrel, fermentation is enhanced with a touch of new French Oak and French Acacia and a prolonged stirring of the lees. This natural process envelops the wines hedonistic aromas and varietal crispness in a beautifully round, rich texture. Be assured, the gorgeous 2014 Wild Iris Sauvignon Blanc is worthy of this 10th Vintage Celebration!
The 2014 Wild Iris is the only 100% Sauvignon Blanc made exclusively from the Lamb Benz single vineyard. Only 172 cases produced.
