The wine that is the cornerstone of Dry Creek Vineyard continues its nod toward traditional Sauvignon Blanc in the true Sancerre style. Brisk but balanced flavors of lemon-lime are charged with tropical fruit and bright acid, continuing into a long, memorable finish. Pair with fish, Dungeness crab or fresh oysters. Alcohol: 13.5%

Grapefruit from the start, some hints of grass. Wonderful flavor that stays. Perfer the flavor when it is closer to room temp. Enjoy with salad's and fish
