Description

CIENEGA VALLEY Sauvignon Blanc is a vivid expression of its California origin, hailing from the unique terroir of Cienega Valley. With a lively 13.5% ABV, this wine effortlessly balances bright acidity with a refreshing palate. The aromatic profile is an ode to classic Sauvignon Blanc, with expected nuances of citrus, perhaps hints of grapefruit or lemon zest, complemented by distinct mineral undertones that speak to its specific vineyard characteristics. On the palate, anticipate a medium-bodied wine that dances with crisp vitality, delivering a clean and invigorating finish. The natural mineral notes contribute to a complexity that is both intriguing and inviting, making it a delightful option for those who appreciate depth in their white wines. While this Sauvignon Blanc can be enjoyed on its own, it truly shines alongside food. Pair it with fresh seafood, such as oysters or grilled shrimp, or with light, herb-driven dishes like a goat cheese salad or a basil pesto pasta, to enhance its bright flavors. To fully appreciate the nuanced character of CIENEGA VALLEY Sauvignon Blanc, serving temperature is key. Chill it to about 45-50°F (7-10°C) to reveal its layered aromas and maintain its refreshing quality. Consider using a narrow, tulip-shaped glass to concentrate its aromatic profile. Decanting is not necessary, as the wine is crafted to be enjoyed young, capturing the vibrant essence of Sauvignon Blanc without the need for extended aging. Whether you're exploring the nuances of Sauvignon Blanc or seeking a distinctive white wine to accompany a meal, this Cienega Valley treasure offers a genuine taste of California's diverse viticultural landscape.

    Glad that hit the spot for you. Next time, check out our Monterey whites too.

    Warm evening on the deck, super refreshing and easy drinking for spring. Would have liked it a tad colder but really solid.

    Response from CBC Liquors, Westford

    Love this pick for the porch. If you want another chill white, give Dry Creek Vineyards a look next time.

    Usually reach for Kim Crawford but this was decent, just not quite as zippy. Good with chicken tacos.
