Dry Creek Vineyard Description
Since 1972, we have produced Fumé Blanc — a wine at the heart and soul of our family winery. Modeled after the classic wines from the Loire Valley in France, our stainless steel fermented Fumé Blanc is crisp, balanced and immediately drinkable. Our Fumé Blanc emanates the classic Dry Creek Vineyard “house” style of Sauvignon Blanc. Aromatics of lemon, lime and grapefruit leap forward from the glass with both fruit and floral nuances of nectarine, peach, jasmine and orange blossom. On the palate, the wine is intense and bright with passionfruit, tangerine and cucumber. Underlying minerality and hints of lemongrass, parsley and mango contribute to this wine’s refreshing, crisp finish.
Wine Spectator: 90 Points
Intense and mouthwatering, with notes of fresh-cut lemongrass, ginger and lemon basil complementing the Meyer lemon, yuzu, Honeycrisp apple and lime flavors. Impressive for its focus and intensity through the finish.
