Expert Review
Jeb Dunnuck 90 Points | A brilliant silver/green-tinged hue, the 2023 Sauvignon Blanc Sonoma County comes from multiple sites in Alexander Valley, Knights Valley, Dry Creek, and the Russian River Valley and is fermented both in barrel as well as in stainless steel. Aromatic with a fresh, tropical perfume of guava, melon, chive, and grapefruit, it offers an elegant and delicately rounded feel, with a kiss of candied citrus and its floral perfume lasting on the finish.

Vibrant, and exotic, this wine combines fresh aromas of citrus bloom, lemon grass, and passion fruit, with subtle wet stone, and flint. In the mouth, flavors of ruby grapefruit, kiwi, and white peach are accompanied by tropical notes of mango and guava. Barrel fermentation brings volume, and texture to the wine while crisp, and vibrant acidity drives a juicy lingering finish.

Audrey Frick writes: Highly aromatic, the 2022 Sauvignon Blanc Sonoma County jumps from the glass with ripe papaya, punchy chive, and grapefruit. Medium-bodied, notes of ripe citrus and tropical fruit fill the palate, with a soft texture and a clean finish. It is fresh with ripe peach and candied citrus and has no harsh edges. A Drink now. - Jeb Dunnuck
