Tasting note
Tilth's 2023 Sonoma Coast Sauvignon Blanc should bring grapefruit, pear and crisp apple, with white flowers and a saline edge. Expect a lively, finely textured palate, bright acidity sharpening the citrus while a gentle savory impression adds depth. The projected peak extends to 2027, and the broader drinking period closes in 2029. Its finish should be clean and brisk, leaving citrus zest, almond and a faint mineral note.

About Tilth

From the cellar: pair with
Ceviche
Citrus zest and saline detail meet the lime and seafood elements of a clean ceviche.
Goat cheese salad
Fresh tropical fruit and bright acidity cut through tangy goat cheese and echo fresh greens.
Grilled shrimp
The wine's fruit and mineral finish refresh grilled shrimp without overwhelming its delicate sweetness.
