WINE REGION:
Clarksburg
Lying south of Sacramento in the California Delta, Clarksburg is a small but productive AVA where quality Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc grow in abundance. The San Francisco Bay has a strong influence here, bringing in fog and cool breezes that temper the valley heat. With its flat, mineral-rich clay soils, vines thrive in Clarksburg, needing little attention to produce plenty of quality grapes. Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Albariño and the red variety Petite Sirah also produce great wines here.

TASTING NOTES:
Grapefruit
Cucumber
Lemon
With punchy, New Zealand-style aromatics, our California Sauvignon Blanc features scents of lemon peel and clementine. Although it is light-bodied, the palate is packed with beguiling flavors and textures where notes of grapefruit and cucumber are supported by refreshing acidity, minerality, and a waxy mouthfeel.

ABOUT THE BRAND:
Linguist Estates
Every language has its own beautiful harmony, and only a true master linguist can identify each nuanced cadence and modulation among them. Winemaking is similar; one must listen to every vintage, pick up on the subtleties of a region's terroir and identify the effects on each varietal. Few achieve master status, but Linguist Estates represents just that in every bottle. Our wines share the intricacies of California's climate and winemaking with a rhythmic elegance you will be delighted to experience.
