Rutherford Single Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc 2019
“The Immigrant’s” Batch #28
“I could’ve had a completely different life if I would’ve chosen to be “The Immigrant” in other parts of the world. Today, I can‘t imagine the opportunity that I was given to live the everyday dream; to make this wine and enjoy a life full of vices, anywhere else but in the United States of America. 28 is also my birthday, so I dedicate this wine to every immigrant that chases every daydream, as most of the people that touch this wine from its roots in Napa to your glass.” - Malek Amrani
