Puffin Wines 2019 Sauvignon Blanc

Puffin Wines 2019 Sauvignon Blanc


This wine was a collaboration with winemaker Ray Walsh who was reared in New Zealand where he worked with Kim Crawford before being recruited as winemaker at Eugene's King Estate Winery and later launching his own label. This Willamette Valley Sauvignon Blanc created for the Cannon Beach Wine Shack's Puffin Wines presents a delightful mix of fruit and herbal aromas include white peach, lime, tomato leaf, fresh green herbs and a hint of jalapeno. On the palate, bright acidity shows a deft balance with flavors of Meyer lemon, grapefruit and peach pit with herbal notes of lemon grass integrating wonderfully.
