New release from former Screaming Eagle winemaker. Limited.

The Brilliant Mistake Sauvignon Blanc is, in a word—sublime. bursting with extraordinary aromas of Meyer lemon, Asian pear, white peach, lime leaf, and grapefruit skin. The is exceptionally bright and well-balanced with notes of juicy stone fruit, pineapple, and grapefruit. Frequent lees bâtonnage adds a creamy texture and a robust body to the wine. The wine is 100% barrel-fermented which adds subtle notes of brioche, vanilla, and white flowers. Showing beautifully now, this wine has the structure and complexity to age gracefully for future enjoyment.

This micro-production project was started in 2013 by John & Stacy Reinert when they launched their ultra-premium Cabernet Sauvignon, which was beautifully handcrafted by the one and only Maayan Koschitzky, Director of Winemaking for Atelier Melka (Philippe Melka’s consulting business producing some of Napa Valley’s greatest wines: Dana Estates, Tusk, Brand, Alejandro Bulgheroni to name a few) and formerly of Dalla Valle and Screaming Eagle. It sold out immediately. A year later, they added another exciting chapter to their story, releasing a spectacular Sauvignon Blanc with gorgeous fruit soured from an esteemed, historic vineyard. Every year since, they have continued to raise the bar and exceed expectations with both their Cabernet & Sauvignon Blanc.
