Cuvaison’s estate Tai Vineyard from Los Carneros was aged for 10 months in concrete (béton) eggs. Tropical fruit dominates the nose, with notes of fresh pineapple, banana, and guava, underpinned by a vanilla-scented warmth. The palate bursts with juicy mango and underripe banana, balanced by just enough acidity to retain freshness and poise. (JC)

Pale lemon. Crushed-stone and baby-powder nose. Nicely balanced mouth-watering acidity and phenolic texture lending broadness but not much fruit – this is far more about minerality and texture. (SCJ)

Notes

Cuvaison’s Méthode Béton Sauvignon Blanc is sourced from estate vineyards in Carneros, where the cooling influence of San Pablo Bay preserves freshness and extends the growing season. Fermented and aged in concrete, the wine emphasizes purity and texture while allowing the site’s clay and loam soils to speak clearly. The result is a precise, site-driven expression that highlights lift, structure, and clarity.
