Matt Iaconis Delta California Sauvignon Blanc 2020
About the wine
This crisp, limited-edition white wine is a must-try for lovers of classic Sauvignon Blanc
- Matt’s cool-climate Sauvignon Blanc is a fruit-driven easy-sipper, fresh like a bite of juicy melon or white peach, with a dash of citrus and a crisp, refreshing finish to round it off.
- Matt sourced this Sauv Blanc from the cool-climate Sacramento Delta, where afternoon breezes keep temperatures in check, helping the grapes ripen slow and evenly with all their fresh, fruity character intact.
- Husband-and-wife team Matt and Alexis Iaconis founded Delta as a line of small-production wines to champion a host of their favorite regions around the Golden State. Plus, for every bottle sold, they donate a portion of the proceeds to a variety of environmental agencies to fight climate change.
Best before
This wine is very young but is delicious now. It will also age gracefully over the next 5+ years.
Serving advice
Serve slightly chilled at around 58-62ºF.
Food match
A fresh green salad would go perfectly with this Sauv Blanc, as would white fish.
Contains sulphites
