"AVETA is a water goddess often depicted carrying fruit. It is a fitting moniker to express the vibrant fruit flavors and minerality of Stag's Leap's Sauvignon Blanc which offers inviting aromas of citrus, guava, lemongrass, orange blossom and hints of boxwood and tangerine. On the palate, the wine is fresh and bright with citrus flavors and a lingering finish with a touch of bright acidity. The weight, flavorful texture, and acidity make this a versatile food wine.
Try pairing AVETA with grilled oysters with mignonette sauce, grilled prosciutto-wrapped shrimp or fresh fish ceviche with cilantro.
Blend: 78% Sauvignon Blanc, 19% Sauvignon Musque, 2% Semillon, 1% Muscat"

"Sliced lemon, melon and pear with some stone on the nose. It’s medium-bodied, tight and fresh with a creamy texture and a delicious finish. Some green melon, too. Drink now."

"This bright and balanced white offers tones of grass, herbs and stone fruit, with a steely core of acidity and freshness. A touch of fig adds subtle richness on the finish."
