Taft Street (20 L) 2023 Sauvignon Blanc, Russian River Valley KEG

Winemaking Notes: The wine was cold fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks in order to maintain the high fruit profile and to preserve and develop the esters and thiols that are characteristic of Sauvignon Blanc.

Tasting Notes: This Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc is refreshingly crisp. The bouquet is perfumed with hints of green apple and white peach. A fine mineral edge frames citrus flavors of lime and grapefruit, while lively acidity provides a polished, lingering finish.

Sustainability & Freshness: Bag-in-box (BIB), cans, and kegs stand out as the most environmentally friendly options for enjoying wine, particularly for immediate consumption. Glass bottles represent nearly 50% of the wine industry’s carbon footprint according to several industry audits. Kegs, with their large volume capacity, play a role in minimizing packaging waste (glass bottles, corks, and labels). This results in a reduction in the number of shipments required, significantly lowering the overall carbon footprint associated with keg wine consumption. Kegs provide a sealed and inert environment, ensuring the wine’s freshness from the initial pour to the last, minimizing spoilage and reducing the need for additives or preservatives. Additionally, kegs are space-efficient, making them a practical choice for small bars and restaurants.
