When approaching this wine the first things you notice are lovely notes of white grapefruit integrated with floral components. Wet stone and tarragon carry you through to a finish of lemon thyme. The palate is focused and lively with a wonderful expression of fruit and yet uncommonly lush for a wine with such bracing acidity. --Brennon Leighton, Winemaker

Efeste 'Feral' Sauvignon Blanc 2011
At some point in a winery's history, commercial yeast that is used enters the air and turns wild. We embrace the wild yeast and nicknamed it 'Feral.'

I find that wine best shows varietal character and terroir when using ambient yeast. This wine was fermented in French Oak barrels, which had seen two previous vintages, for about three months before being bottled.
