Mark David 2013 Transitus Sauvignon Blanc (Rutherford)

Country: US / Transitus
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc California
Winery: Mark David / Rutherford

This wine comes from a partnership between winemaker David Galzignato of Jada Winery in Paso Robles, and Mark McWilliams of Arista Winery in Healdsburg. A devotion to Sauvignon Blanc, it succeeds with this sophisticated expression of lemon chiffon and mandarin orange that’s bright and complex. With two handfuls of Sémillon to the mix, it’s medium in body and length, with just the slightest suggestion of caramel-vanilla oak.
