This is lovely, with a long and caressing feel to its core of Key lime, golden kiwifruit, gooseberry and lemon curd. Verbena, honeysuckle and thyme flavors add contrast and range through the finish, which glistens beautifully, leaving a piercing echo of fleur de sel.

Winemaker Notes

Rochioli Estate Sauvignon Blanc is a pale straw gold color. Passion fruit and melon aromas with citrus tones. The tropical fruit flavors are rich and full witha long, crisp finish.

Winery Notes

The Rochioli family has been growing grapes on its 136-acre ranch since the 1930s. In 1987, Tom Rochioli created the first Rochioli Estate Pinot Noir which Wine Spectator named “The Best Pinot Noir in America.” The Rochioli Vineyard is situated in a very diverse part of the Russian River Valley promoting diversity in the soil types, proximity to the ocean, as well as the contours of the valley, allowing for morning fog and cool evening breezes.
