Tasting Note

Balanced and elegant, the nose hints of bees wax and apricot, white flowers and freshly cut grass. The wine is polished and long on the palate, showing the block’s signature balance between subtle florals and an underlying minerality.

Product Notes

Snowden Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc Sunninghill is a refreshing and crisp white wine that is produced by the Snowden Vineyards, which is located in Napa Valley, California. This Sauvignon Blanc is made from grapes that are grown in the Sunninghill Vineyard of the Snowden estate. The wine features a pale straw color and a bouquet of tropical fruit, citrus, and white peach. On the palate, it is full-bodied and well-balanced with bright acidity and flavors of grapefruit, lemon zest, and guava. This wine is a perfect pairing for light dishes such as grilled seafood, salads, and sushi. It can also be enjoyed on its own as a refreshing aperitif.

About the Winery

Snowden Vineyards

The history of Snowden Vineyards dates back to 1878. At that time, Levi Philander Davis and his wife filed for a 160-acre piece of land under the Homestead Act of 1862. It allowed them to acquire the parcel and plant their first grapevines on the plot in 1878. By 1880, the couple had cleared and prepared 75 acres of orchards of vineyards. After Levi passed away in 1881, his wife, Lucretia, handed over the ownership and privilege of the land to Melchior Kemper. The latter continued to follow the former proprietors and plant vineyards in the cleared areas. BY 1891, he developed 60 acres of parcels that produced Malvoisie, Chasselas, and Zinfandel.
