Winemaker Notes
The 242 Sauvignon Blanc gives way to tropical aromas of guava, gooseberry, passionfruit, along with the freshness of green grass. Medium-bodied with bright acidity, this refreshing wine offers flavors of guava and pineapple, and a clean, mineral finish.
The bright acidity of this wine makes it the perfect partner for fresh herbs in food such as pesto pasta, chimichurri steak, or tarragon chicken. A goat cheese appetizer is an excellent match for Sauvignon Blanc.

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.
Located between the Salinas River and the Santa Lucia Mountains, the San Bernabe AVA is within Monterey County.
