Spottswoode 2024 Sauvignon Blanc, 43% Napa Valley, 57% Sonoma County

Spottswoode’s 2024 Sauvignon Blanc is the kind of wine that nods to history while staying undeniably fresh. The estate has deep roots—established in 1882, and under the Novak family since 1972. It became Napa Valley’s first certified organic vineyard in 1985, driven by Mary Novak’s quiet conviction, and has steadily grown in reputation for balancing elegance with environmental stewardship.

Here, the aromatics open with peach, white florals, and orange peel, giving an immediate lift. Yellow pear and citrus notes follow, carried on a mid-weight frame that feels both generous and precise—the hallmark of a wine built on restraint and clarity.

On the palate, texture and energy come together gracefully. It’s juicy and inviting now, but there’s a clean acid backbone and mineral lift suggesting this Sauvignon is not just ready—it’s built to age. Everything feels discreetly powered and in balance.

Spottswoode always brings purpose to freshness—a clarity born of place, vision, and time. This Sauvignon Blanc doesn’t need flash. It shows what happens when precision and heritage work in harmony.
