Meza Wine Club / February 2025
Discovery White / White
Wine 1: Leeve and Loam Sauvignon Blanc
Levee & Loam Wines come from a place deeply rooted in California’s history, a history as rich as the soil is for planting. Levee & Loam celebrates the microclimate and viticulture created by the levees of the Sacramento Delta, where vines thrive in the exposed, fertile loam, nurtured by ample sun and cooling delta breezes. As much grown as made, our family of wines embodies a balanced and food-friendly approach, with nuanced flavors and refreshing acidity, subtlety over capacity, sip by sip. We experience a Mediterranean-style climate of warm, dry summers and cool, wet winters. By contrast, cool winds off the Pacific Ocean travel inland over a network of waterways (Levees) that act as a natural air conditioner, helping grapes maintain vigorous acidity. Together, geography and climate provide us the unique ability to grow an unusually diverse range of wine grapes. Though sometimes perceived as a hot-climate region, in reality, average temperatures are similar to or even lower than other well-known regions like Healdsburg, St. Helena and
100% Sustainably farmed Sauvignon Blanc from California - fermented in stainless steel.
Tasting Notes: citrus (grapefruit, lime, lemon), green apple
Pair with: seafood, fresh goat cheese crostini
Wine 2: Pinot Project Pinot Grigio
Harvested from the prestigious growing region of Veneto, Italy. The temperate climate of Veneto, as well as its clay and limestone soils, are ideal for producing wines with great natural acidity. The wine is completely unoaked to maintain freshness.
Tasting Notes: White flowers, Granny Smith apples, and lemon zest on the nose. A crisp, bright Pinot Grigio with balanced acidity and great structure.
Pro Tip of the Month: Once you’ve bought that great wine bottle, you’ll need to store it properly. Ideally, you should store the bottle horizontally in a cool and dark place, away from direct sunlight and vibration, and at the right humidity. The optimal storage temperature for various wines is between 50-59°F.
