The Margerum Sybarite is sourced from Happy Canyon: one of the furthest East growing areas around Santa Barbara. Because it is so far inland, it gets significantly warmer here. When it comes to Sauvignon Blanc in Happy Canyon, this hotter climate lets the grapes ripen even more fully. This further ripening mitigates a lot of vegetal and herbaceous notes that are often found in Sauvignon Blanc.
Fruit-forward aromas of white peaches and pears greet you on the nose followed by a vibrant, mouth-watering juiciness on the palate with a fleshy texture. There's a faint kiss of grassiness too in the background that some people describe as tomato leaf.
The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc Sybarite is fabulous. Rich and effusive, with tons of complexity, the 2022 is a rockstar. All the elemants come together in a wine that delivers superb quality and complexity. There is a feeling of exoticism that is undeniably attractive.
