Cakebread Cellars Reviews: 2008 Sauvignon Blanc

2009 Sauvignon Blanc
Napa Valley

 

 

Wine & Spirits Magazine

Wine & Spirits Magazine rated our 2009 Sauvignon Blanc as 'exceptional' with 90 points in their Year's Best issue June 2011 . Here is what they have to say:"The first impression is round and supple, quieted by oak, then the wine turns a corner toward fragrant white cherry and apple fruit flavors. Tart acidity keeps it refreshing, ready to serve with pan-roasted sole and other white-fleshed fish."

 

Orange Co Wine Comp

The 2009 Sauvignon Blanc was awarded a gold medal in the 2010 Orange County Wine Competition held July 2010.
