Sauvignon Blanc

20409 visitors

The grape originated in France, in the regions of Bordeaux and the Loire Valley. Plantings in California, Australia, Chile and South Africa are also extensive, and Sauvignon Blanc is steadily increasing in popularity as white wine drinkers seek alternatives to Chardonnay. The grape can also be found in Italy and Eastern Europe.

More information on Sauvignon Blanc

Food Pairing: Pairs well with any shellfish, grilled or marinated white meat fishes and sushi. Fresh summer salads and vinaigrettes with shaved cheese are a nice afternoon repast with Sauvignon Blanc. Excellent with Mexican cuisine.

2007 Sauvignon Blanc
Napa Valley

We sourced the grapes for our 2007 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc primarily from our estate vineyards in Rutherford, our newer vineyards Calistoga and Carneros regions as well as seve ...moreral outstanding vineyards in St. Helena. The superb fruit from these sites allows us to produce a crisp, full-bodied, complex Sauvignon Blanc of distinctive varietal character. In 2007, we further enhanced the wineâ€™s complexity by blending in 4% Sauvignon MusquÃ©, an especially aromatic clone of Sauvignon Blanc, and 7% SÃ©millon, which enriched the mid-palate, softened acidity and contributed a pleasing citrus tone.
We night-harvest our Sauvignon Blanc grapes at cool temperatures to preserve their fresh, vibrant flavors and achieve an ideal balance of sugar and acidity. After the grapes arrive at the winery, we immediately press the whole clusters to maximize varietal character while minimizing the extraction of astringent compounds from the skins. In 2007, 59% of the juice was tank-fermented and aged in neutral French oak barrels; 26% was fermented and aged in barrel; and 15% was tank-fermented with no oak aging.

2006 Sauvignon Blanc
Russian River Valley

The 2006 growing season in the Russian River Valley was as schizophrenic as they comeâ€¦ As farmers, we tend to always complain about the weather and this year gave us a lot to com ...moreplain about! The season began with a late budbreak followed by rain during early bloom and overall, very cool growing conditions. The crop levels were high, causing a need to go into the vineyard and thin crop (this means throwing fruit to the ground) at least three times before the grapes ripened. Choosing the right time to pick grapes in 2006 reminded me of trying to choose the right wave to paddle into after a major storm in the pacific (one leading to a close-out wave and inevitable wipeout and the other to an exhilarating tube trip). Enjoy the ride!

The 2006 Longboard Sauvignon Blanc fruit comes from two vineyards: 8.5% from the Delamontanya Vineyard and 91.5% from the Oâ€™Neel Vineyard. The wine displays peach and honeysuckle aromas and delivers a mouthful of fresh, crisp pear and apple flavors. The balanced acidity ensures the wine will match well with a variety of foods ranging from Dungeness Crab cakes to Thai dishes.
