The McGinley Sauvignon Blanc is a creamy and appetising expression of the varietal. It embodies the salty minerality of ocean-kissed Santa Barbara, offering a creamier palate feel than most Northern California Sauvignon Blancs. There’s a richness to the fruit, reminiscent of fleshy, juicy peach or apricot, balanced by pithy lime and brisk acidity, with further nuances of lime blossoms, slivered almonds, and a kiss of oak. Mineral tension runs throughout, leading to a nice, long finish. Sourced from the same vines in the McGinley Vineyard since 1998 (converted to organic farming in 2009), the wine is barrel-fermented in neutral French oak, with malolactic fermentation blocked, and aged for six months. Ojai Vineyard was founded in 1983 by winemaker Adam Tolmach.
