Ritchie Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc
Russian River Valley, Sonoma County, California, USA
This is a SB re-imagined. It presents like no other SB. It’s hard to believe that the winemaker’s creativity and imagination created something like this, to the point that it alters how you see SB. Shimmering in the glass, the nose displays pine nuts and beeswax. It presents as lithe and oily on the palate, giving way to pineapples and lychees. Acidity is soft and muted, and this plays into what is a deconstructed and rebuilt new world SB - we love this product. Age is its friend. The Ritchie vineyard may also be a factor contributing to its brilliance.

Apr 23rd, 2023Such a smashing rendition of a SB. I can’t think of anything else quite like this on the market today.
The acidity is relaxing, suggesting that you should consider consuming these now.

Let me not repeat myself…
Lithe, balanced and moderately toned. Roasted lemons and summery notes, similar to sangria. Excellent

Very impressed with this. The nose and palate are very unlike typical SB’s.
Nose is exotic and complex. Pineapples and passion fruit seamlessly transition to the mid palate. Served at approx. 55F, this is suave, and elegant. Soft acidity and moderate sweetness complete an outstanding presentation.
A super gift from David and Kristen. Thank you 😊

This wine is lightly tinted yellow-gold in the glass. Its nose offers sweet stone fruit, tropical notes, citrus and a very faint grassy or herbal sense. The oak shows rather strongly on the palate, with a razor-sharp acidity, and both those elements seem to play off of one another. Pineapple candy comes back on the finish. This is an expensive Sauvignon Blanc, but it has a lot to offer.

White flower blossom, peach, honeysuckle, and juicy mango on the nose with warm honeysuckle, white peach, and jasmine on the pallet definitely the most complex Sauvignon blanc iv had and really shows off for the varietal and shows me there’s more there than just crisp and clean citrus lovely wine here
