The Story
I come from the cool, coastal Edna Valley, where foggy mornings and ocean breezes shape wines of precision and lift. My home, Grieve Vineyard, sits close enough to the Pacific to keep temperatures moderated and flavors focused. Crafted by Waypoint, I’m made with a clear sense of place in mind — minimal intervention, careful timing at harvest, and a gentle hand in the cellar to let my vineyard speak. I’m a snapshot of this coastal corner of California: clean, expressive, and quietly confident.
Why You’ll Love Me
I open with aromas of grapefruit zest, lime leaf, and fresh-cut herbs, followed by subtle hints of white peach and wet stone. On the palate, I’m crisp and vibrant, driven by bright acidity and a mineral core that keeps everything beautifully in balance. My finish is clean and refreshing, inviting another sip without ever feeling sharp. I’m a Sauvignon Blanc that favors elegance over excess — poised, refreshing, and effortlessly food-friendly.
