RATINGS

93Vinous / IWC

...an utterly irresistible white that deftly balances intense varietal character with textural richness. Orchard fruit, dried flowers, sage, mint and tropical accents show off the more flamboyant side of Sauvignon Blanc.

90The Wine Advocate

...opens with a POW on the nose! Gooseberry, Granny Smith apple, fresh lime peel, grapefruit and lemon juice aromas mingle with notes of river stone and cut grass. The light-bodied palate is clean and fresh, with mouthwatering acidity and an appealing, rounded texture, finishing very refreshing.

REGION

United States, California, Sonoma, Sonoma Coast

Sonoma Coast AVA runs from San Pablo Bay in the south to Mendocino County in the north. It includes 7,000 vineyard acres and earned AVA status in 1987. Its proximity to the Pacific Ocean means it gets double the rainfall of nearby inland appellations and the ocean gives the appellation a relatively cool climate. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir can thrive in these conditions, and there are numerous producers making critically acclaimed Chardonnay and Pinot Noir.

TYPE

White Wine, Sauvignon Blanc

This crisp, dry white wine hails from France but is grown in wine regions around the world. In California, it is sometimes called Fume Blanc; while in Sauternes, it is a component of their famous dessert wines.
