2023 Aridus Sauvignon Blanc, Arizona
Arizona Wine for People Who’ve Grown Out of Grapefruit Drama. Sauv Blanc has a reputation. High acid. High drama. All citrus, no chill. But the 2023 Aridus flips that narrative like a bartender who actually listens to your vibe. No aggressive grapefruit tantrums. No limey slap across the face. This bottle rolls in smooth — think honeydew, white tea, and desert herbs in a linen shirt that’s never seen a wrinkle. It’s Sauv Blanc, but evolved. Rounded edges. Whisper-soft tropical fruit. A clean, mineral thread like rain on hot stone. It tastes like someone read the Sauvignon Blanc handbook and said, “Thanks, but let’s not scream today.” Grown in Arizona’s high desert, this is elegance in unexpected places. The kind of wine you bring to a rooftop with someone who gets metaphors.
