$13.99 per bottle
Description:
It was a wild ride and now we take no chances. We harvested these Dancing Crow Vineyard, Lake County, Calif., grapes at ideal acid and sugar levels. Artful crafting, perfect timing and a meticulous filtering process have created a crisp jewel of a wine. Fragrant with quava, green apple and pineapple, BLIND CURVE reveals a sophisticated range of lively fruit flavors on the tongue with a rich finish. Lovely with hors d’oeuvres, light entrees and creamy desserts.

Varietal Definition
Sauvignon Blanc:
Sauvignon Blanc is widely grown in California — at over 15,000 acres, it’s now the third most planted variety — and often assumes the moniker ‘Fume Blanc’. This popular synonym, credited to Napa’s Robert Mondavi, derives from the grape’s historic home of Pouilly in France’s Upper Loire Valley, where Sauvignon Blanc is the dominant varietal and goes locally by the name of ‘Blanc Fumé’. When treated with respect and afforded suitable growing conditions, Sauvignon Blanc is one of the wine world’s darlings. Steely, racy acidity, green, gooseberry fruit, asparagus and a grassy, herbaceous character characterize dry wines made from this grape.
