Dry Creek Vineyard
Dry Creek Valley Sauvignon Blanc
Dry Creek Vineyard, with more more than 50 years of history and tradition in Dry Creek Valley, is one of Northern California’s most consistent and excellent producers of Sauvignon Blanc. This is the unmasked version, and there is a slightly richer, very lightly packed version called FumêBlanc. Crisp pear, green apple, yellow apple, grapefruit, gooseberry, passion fruit… this wine is a summary of all the main characteristics of the grape. Refreshing acidity, beautiful balance and bargain priced - just terrific

Aug 3rd, 2017Crisp, dry wine. It has a nice acidic taste and is pretty fruity- it smells like pear and grapefruit.
