About This Wine

Dry Creek Vineyard

Fumé Blanc

Since 1972, Dry Creek Vineyards has produced Fumé Blanc — a wine at the heart and soul of the winery. Modeled after the classic wines from the Loire Valley in France, Fumé Blanc is crisp, balanced, and immediately drinkable. Winery founder David Stare was the first person to plant the Sauvignon Blanc varietal (the grape used to make Fumé Blanc) in the Dry Creek Valley, against the advice of many viticultural experts. Many years later, Sauvignon Blanc is now the most widely planted white variety in the Dry Creek Valley, and his daughter Kim and her husband Don are proud to carry on his legacy producing this classic, dry white wine.

Wine Region

Sonoma County

Many of California's world-class wines come from Sonoma County, separated from Napa by the Mayacamas Mountains. Three times the size of Napa, Sonoma is an incredibly diverse region. Cool coastal zones, fog-cloaked hillsides, sheltered valleys and craggy exposed peaks give Sonoma a vast array of terroirs and microclimates. Its many sub-regions produce a broad range of styles: from the bold Cabernets of Alexander Valley to the fragrant Pinots of Sonoma Coast and the sublime Chardonnays of Chalk Hill.

  • A figure representing the Mineral tasting note. Mineral
  • A figure representing the Lemon tasting note. Lemon

On the nose are aromatics of Meyer lemon, kaffir lime, guava, pineapple, and grapefruit. On the palate, the wine is bright and refreshing with flavors of Meyer lemon, lime, passionfruit, and white peach with underlying minerality and hints of fresh-cut grass and jalapeño. This wine is mouthwatering and delicious with lovely intensity and a clean, pure finish.
