Region: Napa Valley, California

Vintage: 2021

Composition: 100% Sauvignon Blanc

History: Fidelio is the only white wine in Realm’s portfolio. The Sauvignon Blanc comes from two iconic vineyards, Farella, our cool-climate Estate vineyard in the Coombsville AVA, and Gamble Family Vineyard in Yountville. Sourcing from both a cool and warmer site infuses the wine with a wide range of fruit characteristics, and the multiple selections add to the spectrum of flavors and textures. Brewing: Fidelio is well-balanced, not leaning toward the oak or grass end of the spectrum. Its round texture comes from removing the lees and neutral aging in barrels. Fidelio is our version of a fine white Bordeaux, beautifully structured, expansive on the palate and wonderfully complex.

Tasting Notes:

“This sauvignon blanc is very impressive with a layered density of dry lemon and mineral character. Dehydrated mango as well. Full body, phenolic texture and creamy feel. Tasty finish.” – James Suckling
