Dark Horse Sauvignon Blanc – 750ML

TP 90

California grapes with a New Zealand attitude.

New Zealand-style Sauvignon Blancs have become wildly popular for their bright flavors and ability to play well with cuisines from around the world. Winemaker, Beth Liston knew that with a little planning and a lot of know-how, she could achieve that same unmistakable vibrancy with locally-sourced California grapes.

Tasting Notes

Bright grapefruit acidity and fresh green notes on the nose. The palate has crisp citrus fruit flavor with a refreshing, clean finish. The delicate balance of fruit and acidity that might otherwise be lost during the aging process.

Serving Suggestion

Pairs well with warm-weather meals like grilled fish and fresh, summer salads. But it’ll also make you think twice about what kind of wine can stand up to a powerful pesto or anything with a spicy kick.

Tasting Panel

90 points || The nose features jasmine, green tea, and bright key lime. Grapefruit flavors add zest from the start as unbridled acidity shines a spotlight on pineapple and kiwi.
