Grapefruit, lemon curd, ripe peach, apple and limestone. Vibrant acidity and good minerality.

This Fumé Blanc is 100% Sauvignon Blanc grapes and is bright and refreshing throughout. It has prevalent citrus flavors of grapefruit and lime, with a nice touch of minerality in the form of slate and saline. A wonderful value and paired great with a spicy chicken salad with poppyseed dressing. ($8) [4/14/18]

In 1972, when David S. Stare opened the doors to DCV, it was the first new winery to be built in the Valley since Prohibition. DCV created the first Sonoma Fume Blanc, originated the Dry Creek Valley AVA. Straw with stone fruit and citrus aromas. On the palate Granny Smith apple and grapefruit flavors with lemon zest wrapped in a juicy acidic frame. Nicely balanced on medium finish ending with mineral tones. Nice value. Tasting Sample.

Apr 14th, 2017Great wine! Got a hint of pear and crisp Apple notes. Pleasant aroma almost like an olive oil smell when cooking. Enjoyed this with cuts of Colby cheese
