A 100% Pinot Grigio, fermented in stainless steel, and sourced entirely from Garre Vineyard. It’s a weighty, juicy, full-throttle expression of the variety, with silky texture and plenty of ripe apricot, white peach, and pear to entice. Notes of dried wild herbs, mango, and slivered, salty Marcona almonds build in complexity, making this a richly layered and satisfying white.
The vineyard is in Pinole, and the grapes are whole-cluster pressed, fermented and aged in stainless steel, then bottled in January following the harvest. The wine is bright and crisp, with a rich umami baking-spice note reminiscent of Parmesan rind, encompassed by bright citrus and subtle tropical-fruit tones, finishing on a stony mineral edge. Jennifer Sahura says she named the wine after the Japanese word sakura, meaning ‘cherry blossoms’. The fleeting beauty of the sakura reminds us to embrace life and appreciate each moment, and she hopes the Sakura wines bring people together — family, friends and the moments that matter. Jennifer was raised in Davis, lived in Sunnyvale, and in 2020 moved with her family to Livermore.
If you love Italian Pinot Grigio, this light-bodied Californian counterpoint delivers the same zippy, citrusy, easy-going quality, but imbued with riper-tasting citrus and orchard fruit grown under a canopy of bright California sunshine. A touch of baking spice and wet river stone finish brings complexity.
