Bread & Butter Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Drink it now. No need to decant. Serve it at 10/12 °C. Bread & Butter is a wine company from Napa Valley, California, whose name perfectly reflects the aromas and flavors of their wines influenced in particular by the wood and the malolactic fermentation. The type of oak, the origin, the producer, the level of toasting, the time on the oak, and the racking all play a fundamental role in the development of bread-like flavors and the texture of the wine. The characteristics of the butter derive instead from malolactic fermentation. The conversion of malic acid to lactic acid makes the wine creamier and round, producing opulent, buttery aromas. The Bread & Butter winery has been able to enhance the value of this renowned territory and the variety of Californian vines, combining modernity and in-depth experience. The naturally cool climate is ideal for the delicate vines from which the company produces wines with a consistent and reliable style, accessible, drinkable, and generously fruity. This fresh and expressive wine, produced with Sauvignon Blanc grapes from the North Coast, displays an intense and lively olfactory profile with tropical fruit, citrus, lemon peel, and light herbaceous notes. In the mouth, the wine is dry and vibrant with a seductive minerality and a clean and refreshing finish. Try it with chicken with peppers.
