Sensory Description:
The 2022 'Roman Ceremony' Sauvignon Blanc is a tribute to the grand Bordeaux whites of the past. It presents a complex array of flavors starting with a bright, aromatic profile that hints at its noble lineage. The palate is refined and structured, offering layers of ripe citrus, melon, and herbal nuances, without any harsh "green" notes. The wine's texture is uniquely waxy and rounded, a result of its aging in old French barriques and the complete malolactic fermentation it undergoes. This process lends a creamy, almost velvety mouthfeel, beautifully balancing the inherent crispness of Sauvignon Blanc.
Winemaker's Background:
Railsback Frères was founded by brothers Lyle and Eric Railsback in 2015, initially as a rosé project. Their deep appreciation for French wines and biodynamic practices led them to expand their portfolio, including this exceptional Sauvignon Blanc. Lyle Railsback, previously with Kermit Lynch, and Eric Railsback, founder of Lieu Dit wines and owner of Verve Wine, bring a combined expertise and passion for Old World wine styles to their craft, producing distinctive wines that reflect both their heritage and innovation.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve the 'Roman Ceremony' Sauvignon Blanc chilled, ideally between 8-10°C (46-50°F). It pairs splendidly with a variety of dishes, from fresh seafood and poultry to goat cheese salads and light pasta dishes. Its elegant structure and full flavors also make it an excellent companion to more complex dishes like grilled white meats with herbal sauces.
The 2022 Railsback Freres 'Roman Ceremony' Sauvignon Blanc stands as a testament to the art of winemaking, merging historical vines with modern techniques to create a wine that is both a nod to the past and a toast to the future. Enjoy this exquisite Sauvignon Blanc as it beautifully unfolds its story in each glass, inviting you to partake in a legacy that spans continents and centuries.
