Quivira Vineyards, Dry Creek Valley (Sonoma County, California) Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Nov 16, 2022

By Rich Cook

 Acacia barrels have been becoming more common in wine world, especially in Sauvignon Blanc.  Here, it imparts a nice floral aromatic note to the citrus and grass mix.  Those characteristics transfer to palate flavors directly, with the Acacia and French oak rounding off the acidity a touch and brightening the fruit impression.  This is quite pleasant as a solo glass, or try it with a Waldorf salad.
