Favorite Sauvignon Blanc?

Now that warmer weather is upon us, I am looking at my wines and notice a major lack of summer whites. I must have drank most of them last year. I’m wondering what Sauv. Blanc producers you guys enjoy? For me…

Windy Oaks Hopefully! Have yet to try, but some is coming for my May shipment.

Thanks,

Jen,
If its allowed, a little horn tooting:
Cowan Cellars 2012 - released today!
It came out really good.
Best, Jim

Grey Stack
Merry Edwards
Rochioli
Spottswoode

Jim,

Sounds like a complimentary bottle coming my way for calling me “Jen” champagne.gif

Well heck, if Cowan can toot his own horn . . . (-:

Try the Dragonette Sauv Blancs from the Happy Canyon area - arguably the best in SB County.

Or for something different, perhaps try my new dry Gewurztraminer that I call The Outlier, or my austere Grenache Blanc - they would do the trick as well . . .

Now back to your regularly scheduled channel.

Cheers!

Damn auto-correct.
PM your address and you got it.
Best, Jim

Domestically - J. Christopher’s both Willamette and Croft vineyards.
Old world - Gerard Boulay’s Sancerre portfolio.

Congrats, Jim!

For me, Dagueneau makes not only the best sauv blanc, but some of the best wine I’ve ever had. Following that, anything from Marlborough kills any domestic sauv blanc by a mile.

Caymus but that was years ago.

Probably be roasted for this but I really like Charles Krug SB. About $12.

I love Rochioli, Merry Edwards, Grey Stack but for the $$ the Krug rocks.

My wife says:

Merry Edwards
Anything from NZ

I say:

Loire baby!
Although I must admit, when I need a fat, yummy Sav Blanc, Merry Edwards works.
