Stag's Leap Wine Cellars 'Aveta' Sauvignon Blanc 2023 Review
Aveta is the name of the Roman water goddess Dea Aveta, often depicted carrying fruit. Grapes were carried from four vineyards to make this wine. See what I did there? This wine was fermented in a mix of stainless steel tanks and older French oak barrels, creating a great balance between crisp, zippy acidity and a rounded, complex mouthfeel. It delivers juicy, concentrated flavors of tropical fruits like mango and pineapple, contrasted by fresh and tangy citrus.
