WINE DESCRIPTION

Spottswoode Sauvignon Blanc is a premium white wine produced by Spottswoode Estate Vineyard & Winery, located in the Napa Valley appellation of California. The grapes are sourced from the estate's organically farmed vineyards, which are situated on the western edge of St. Helena. The wine is made using traditional winemaking techniques, including whole-cluster pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks, which preserve the bright fruit flavors and crisp acidity of the Sauvignon Blanc grape. The resulting wine is a refreshing and elegant expression of the varietal, with notes of citrus, white peach, and a hint of minerality. It is a perfect match for seafood, salads, and light pasta dishes.

ORIGINS

Winery: Spottswoode

Region: North Coast California

The North Coast of California boasts some of the most renowned vineyards and wineries in the world. Located in the northern part of the state, the North Coast is home to the Napa Valley, Sonoma County, and Mendocino County, all of which are recognised for their exceptional wines. The North Coast of California has a long and storied history of winemaking, dating back to the mid-1800s. The region was first planted with vines by Spanish missionaries, who planted Mission grapes in the area. In the late 1800s, Italian immigrants began to settle in the region, bringing with them their own grape varieties and winemaking techniques. By the early 1900s, the North Coast had become a major wine-producing region, with many of the wineries still in operation today.
