Our Moon Mountain Estate Vineyard was chosen for its ability to produce world-class white wine. Its volcanic and clay soils, dual coastal influences and 1800 ft elevation creates truly distinctive white wines and our Moon Mountain Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect example of this.
Every step of the wine-making is overseen by the same team that produces our red wines. Our wine-making team puts the same skill, attention, and hard work into producing our world-class white wines as they do with our better-known red wines. Theorem’s Sauvignon Blanc is aged in three unique vessels, each adding their own layer of depth and complexity to the final blend. One-third of the production is aged in stainless steel drums. This helps to lock in the crisp, acid-driven style that is the backbone to our Sauvignon Blanc. One-third of the production is aged in neutral, French oak barrels. This adds fleshiness and weight to the final blend. And finally, one-third of the production is aged in a custom-made concrete egg. The concrete helps to preserve the minerality in the wine, while adding a beautiful creaminess, weight and complexity mid-palate. All of this combines to create a truly stunning Sauvignon Blanc that is fit for the finest cellars in the world.
