Wine Review: This clear and light straw-colored Sauvignon Blanc from Frog's Leap opens with a gentle pink grapefruit and nectarine pit bouquet with hints of mild gooseberry and chalk dust. On the palate, this wine is light plus bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced, smooth, clean, and fresh. The flavor profile is a mild yellow grapefruit and chalky minerality blend with notes of lime zest and white peach. We also detected hints of white pepper, kiwi, and saline. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity linger nicely. We would pair this Sauvignon Blanc with baked Dover sole or with a lemon garlic scallop pasta. Enjoy - KWGTP

Winemaker Notes: Stone fruit and white flower aromatics are perfectly complemented with crisp, minerally flavors. Fermented and aged in stainless steel tanks to preserve the purity and distinctiveness of this noble grape.

Winemaker Interview Series – Brian Pruett – Dry Creek Vineyard – Feb 2026

On Wednesday, February 25, 2026, we interviewed Brian Pruett. Brian is the winemaker at Dry Creek Vineyard. We covered eight wines during the visit. We started with Chenin Blanc and a single vineyard Sauvignon Blanc, both from the 2024 vintage. Then we tried three single-vineyard and one historic-field-blend Zinfandel from the 2022 vintage. As you will recall, we really liked 2022 as a Zinfandel vintage. Finally, we wrapped up with their 2021 Red Blend and their flagship Cabernet Sauvignon from the 2022 vintage. It was a great tasting and a lot of fun. In this post, you can learn what we learned about Brian and the history of the winery and read our reviews of all of these impressive wines.
