Quivira Vineyards, Dry Creek Valley Fig Tree Sauvignon Blanc
Star bright in the glass with the color of pale straw, the wine exudes fruit aromas of Meyer lemon, key lime, apricot and fig leaf. These are complimented by non fruit notes of white flowers, jalapeno, gravel and freshly watered grass. In the mouth the Fig Tree explodes with tart lemon, lime and tangerine. High acidity is tempered with river rock minerality, white flowers and orange pith which changes to a fleshy, ripe tangerine on the finish.
