Aperture Sauvignon Blanc 2019
About the wine
Top-shelf, barrel-aged Sauvignon - a nod to famous Bordeaux Blanc!
-
Sourced from a prestigious, cool-climate vineyard a stone’s throw from the coast, this is a luscious Sauvignon Blanc – made extra lavish thanks to special barrel fermentation.
-
Inspired by his time in Bordeaux, Jesse fermented and aged this Sonoma Sauv Blanc for 6 months in French oak barrels to bring an unforgettably smooth, creamy texture to a wine famous for citrusy zing.
-
For helping to support Jesse through these tough times, just as he was preparing to open his first tasting room, he’s giving Angels a special opportunity to scoop up one of the most impeccable Sauvignon Blancs in all of Sonoma.
Best before
This wine is drinking beautifully now and will age in bottle gracefully for the next 2-4 years.
Serving advice
We suggest serving this wine chilled.
Food match
This wine is incredible with a variety of cheeses, green vegetables like asparagus, artichokes and peas, buttery and delicate fish and Asian-influenced cuisine.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Jesse Katz
Jesse Katz is a winemaking wunderkind who spent his formative years working with legendary names like Bordeaux's Petrus (he even experienced a harvest at Screaming Eagle) before becoming America's youngest head winemaker at 25 with Lancaster Estate.
In 2009, Jesse launched his Sonoma winery, Aperture Cellars, where he’s already earned dozens of 95+ Parker Scores since then. He’s got decades of harvests before him and he loves the community you've built at Naked so much, he wants to make award-winning wines with you, too.
“Angel support is amazing," said Jesse. "Working with Naked Wines is a wonderful way to be creative and we’re excited about a growing partnership now and in the future.”
