About This Wine


Common Phenomena

Sauvignon Blanc

With gentle acidity and ripe tropical fruit flavors, Double Gold Medal-winning Common Phenomena has unveiled a softer side of Sauvignon Blanc. This wine leans more towards unctuous, fruity, and smooth than the sharp textures and herbaceous characteristics commonly associated with this flavorful grape variety. In the fertile soils of the Clarksburg AVA in northern California, these grapes received ample nutrients while basking in the warm California sun. Coastal winds and afternoon fogs protected the delicate white grapes from overripening while allowing their versatile flavors to reach the tropical side of the ripeness spectrum. This wine is a stunning example of multiple elements of Mother Nature culminating into one beautiful wine. We hope that with each sip, you enjoy a less familiar version of a common varietal. Serve this wine well chilled on sunset strolls or alongside salty cheeses or soft white fish. Scroll through the image carousel above to learn more about this wine.

Wine Region


Clarksburg

Lying south of Sacramento in the California Delta, Clarksburg is a small but productive AVA where quality Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc grow in abundance. The San Francisco Bay has a strong influence here, bringing in fog and cool breezes that temper the valley heat. With its flat, mineral-rich clay soils, vines thrive in Clarksburg, needing little attention to produce plenty of quality grapes. Sauvignon Blanc, Viognier, Albariño and the red variety Petite Sirah also produce great wines here.
