Winemaker Notes
Dry, fruit-forward, and so light it’ll keep you on your toes. With less sugar, no flavor additives, and all the flavor you could ask for. Time to fulfill your glass.
In 2015, two friends who adored wine, but weren't exactly sommeliers, had a brainwave. They saw a gap in market for wines that could jive with active, vibrant lives like yours. So, armed with an entrepreneurial spirit and a thirst for fun, they birthed FitVine.
FitVine isn't just a wine. It's a revolution, a fun and audacious answer to the call of all of you who want to raise a glass without sacrificing your hard-earned gains at the gym. Sugar? Nah, don't need it. Sulfites and tannins? Keep 'em low like your last set of reps. Flavor? Oh, it's there alright, strutting its stuff like a runway model at a vino fashion show.
At FitVine they believe less is more except when it comes to great taste! They also believe you should know what's in each glass of wine you drink—from sugar content to calories and everything in between so you can make the best choice for you.
Capable of a vast array of styles, Sauvignon Blanc is a crisp, refreshing variety that equally reflects both terroir and varietal character. Though it can vary depending on where it is grown, a couple of commonalities always exist—namely, zesty acidity and intense aromatics. This variety is of French provenance. Somm Secret—Along with Cabernet Franc, Sauvignon Blanc is a proud parent of Cabernet Sauvignon. That green bell pepper aroma that all three varieties share is no coincidence—it comes from a high concentration of pyrazines (herbaceous aromatic compounds) inherent to each member of the family.
Responsible for the vast majority of American wine production, if California were a country, it would be the world’s fourth largest wine-producing nation. The state’s diverse terrain and microclimates allow for an incredible range of red wine styles, and unlike tradition-bound Europe, experimentation is more than welcome here. California wineries range from tiny, family-owned boutiques to massive corporations, and price and production are equally varied. Plenty of inexpensive bulk wine is made in the Central Valley area, while Napa Valley is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious and expensive “cult” wines.
Each American Viticultural Area (AVA) and sub-AVA of has its own distinct personality, allowing California to produce red wine of every fashion: from bone dry to unctuously sweet, still to sparkling, light and fresh to rich and full-bodied. In the Napa Valley, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc dominate vineyard acreage. Sonoma County is best known for Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Cabernet Sauvignon, Rosé and Zinfandel. The Central Coast has carved out a niche with Rhône Blends based on Grenache and Syrah, while Mendocino has found success with cool climate varieties such as Pinot noir, Riesling and Gewürztraminer. With all the diversity that California wine has to offer, any wine lover will find something to get excited about here.
