Emmolo

This reserve Sauvignon Blanc from Napa Valley originated from an experiment in the vineyard – a technique we now employ early in each growing season. We use a brush to remove more than half the grapes on every cluster. This labor-intensive process ensures that the remaining grapes receive abundant and equal sunlight. Harvested early, this wine features a notably racy acidity but no herbaceous quality, balanced by roundness on the palate. Produced only in a 1-liter bottle.

Guided by the idea that “less is more,” this wine is dry and fresh, with crisp fruit flavors and bright minerality. Starting with the 2019 vintage, our grapes come from Napa Valley and Suisun Valley, a “hidden gem” only 30 minutes from Napa that shares a similar maritime climate and produces exceptional wine. In both regions, our farming practices enable us to create a wine that is not overly ripe – while also not herbaceous – featuring low alcohol and bright acidity.
