Nose
Beautiful aromas of tropical guava and hints of lemon grass.
Palate
Bright zesty citrus flavors are abundant on the palate and highlighted by nuances of fresh pineapple and green apple. This light bodied white finishes with a splash of acid that is delightfully refreshing.
Growing Conditions
The 2022 growing season was slightly warmer than average. Mild conditions prevailed through spring and early summer, followed by a heat wave and extended warm temperatures in September that accelerated fruit ripening. On average, the grapes were picked a week earlier than typical.

Winemaking
After harvesting, grapes for the Treana Sauvignon Blanc were whole-cluster pressed into stainless steel tanks for settling. The juice was then racked off its heavy lees, 75% going to stainless steel tanks and 25% being barreled down into a mix of new French and American oak for fermentation. An initial blend was created in mid-January, where targeted lots were delicately fined with bentonite. After the final blend was assembled, the wine was gently crossflow filtered before bottling.
