Winery's Notes
"...This is not the Bordeaux style of Sauvignon Blanc that Vanessa made when she was winemaker at Peter Michael where there is barrel aging and often Semillon in the blend. On the contrary, the grapes are picked to capture the citrus, green papaya, lemon blossom, chalky side of Sauvignon Blanc. It is tank fermented to retain acidity and freshness and bottled in the December following vintage."

"Just bottled, the 2024 Sauvignon Blanc Hopkins Ranch is bright, crisp and refreshing. Lime, white flowers and brisk acids give 2024 notable freshness and immediacy. Best of all, it's a fine value, too." -AG, Jan/2025
