Learn:
Sauvignon Blanc is characterized by its green skin and production of a refreshing, crisp, dry white wine. This grape's origin is from the Bordeaux region of France. However, these wines are a popular varietal in California, in which you can also see labeled as "Fume Blanc."
Taste:
Always crisp and refreshing, Livermore Valley vintners like to put their own spin on this classic varietal, with flavors that range from vibrant lemongrass and herb to tart green apple, round melon and fig.
Pair:
Try Sauvignon Blanc with wild mushroom soup, grilled red snapper or asparagus - especially sauteed in garlic.
