(122 views) | | Tasted by vinolovers on 11/28/2019 & rated 92 points: Color slowing becoming darker with time. While the nose provided some stone fruit aroma, the sweet orange, honey and a hint of basil to the taste. Not syrupy in the least. Not a perfect match for the combo of pumpkin & apple pie along with a strawberry cheesecake (what would?). Probably peaking! (685 views) | | Tasted by TXRhoneRanger on 11/26/2015 & rated 91 points: Nice wine but the fruit is starting to wane - drink this up. Drank very well tonight. Great acid, mouthfeel, and finish but I can see this headed into decline in the next 2-3 years. Thanksgiving dessert wine. (1210 views) | | Tasted by vinolovers on 5/27/2012 & rated 90 points: Poured to a nice medium golden coloring. Flavor profile on stone fruits with a hint of basil. Not a super sweet, syrupy wine. Paired wonderfully with the peach ice cream! (1973 views) | | Tasted by ydris on 10/31/2011 & rated 91 points: Yum. Honey and dried apricots. (3142 views) | | Tasted by cartime on 6/4/2010 & rated 89 points: Decent late harvest botrytized SB. Flowers, lemon curd, tropical fruit, vanilla, and honey. Good acidity. The floral quality to this was a but overpowering and takes away from its enjoyment. (2325 views) |
| Deerfield Ranch Producer websiteSauvignon Blanc Varietal CharacterUSAAmerican wine has been produced since the 1500s, with the first widespread production beginning in New Mexico in 1628. Today, wine production is undertaken in all fifty states, with California producing 84% of all U.S. wine. The continent of North America is home to several native species of grape, including Vitis labrusca, Vitis riparia, Vitis rotundifolia, and Vitis vulpina, but the wine-making industry is based almost entirely on the cultivation of the European Vitis vinifera, which was introduced by European settlers. With more than 1,100,000 acres (4,500 km2) under vine, the United States is the fourth-largest wine producing country in the world, after Italy, Spain, and France.California2021 vintage: "Unlike almost all other areas of the state, the Russian River Valley had higher than normal crops in 2021, which has made for a wine of greater generosity and fruit forwardness than some of its stablemates." - Morgan Twain-Peterson Central Coasthttp://www.ccwinegrowers.org/links.html
