About This Wine


Seatherny

Sauvignon Blanc

This exceptional wine is part of our Fine Wine Collection.

Winemaking A 58/42 blend of Sauvignon Blanc from Los Carneros AVA and Napa Valley’s sub-AVA St. Helena. Los Carneros’ portion leads the blend, bringing bright acidity, vibrant tropical fruit notes, and a crisp finish that enhances the blend’s freshness and structure. St. Helena’s portion adds a fuller body, rich stone fruit flavors, and a creamy texture, contributing to the wine’s complexity and balance. Together, they create a harmonious wine with balanced acidity, generous fruit flavors and body resulting in a complex and elegant Sauvignon Blanc showcasing both terroir’s unique attributes.

Vintage The 2023 harvest in Napa Valley was notably cooler than previous years. The growing season began with higher-than-average rainfall in winter and a chilly spring, which delayed the growing season by 10 - 14 days compared to the year prior. The summer brought mild temperatures, contributing to longer hang time and the gradual accumulation of natural sugars and aromatic compounds in the grapes. Extended ripening period and favorable weather conditions are why the 2023 Sauvignon Blanc has higher aromatics, complexity and concentration of flavors than previous years.

Pairing Logic This wine’s crisp acidity and vibrant fruit notes work well with fresh, zesty, and citrusy dishes as they enhance and complement these flavors. Its fruity and acidic character helps balance rich and creamy components in dishes, such as cheese, cream, or butter. Sauvignon Blanc’s light-to-medium body and mineral notes make it a suitable pairing for dishes with subtle flavors, allowing them to shine without being overpowered by the wine.

What the Critics Say The 2025 Press Democrat North Coast Wine Challenge awarded this wine a gold medal, scoring 94 points for its notes of "guava, grapefruit, lime and grassy long finish."

Wine Region


Napa Valley

Napa gained international acclaim following the Judgement of Paris in 1976, when its wines defeated its French counterparts in a blind tasting. Napa's signature wines are Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and various Bordeaux blends, but many other varieties, such as Pinot Noir, Zinfandel, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc also thrive here. With 16 sub-AVAs and a Mediterranean climate with rich geology, Napa is a winemaker's dream. The winegrowing region runs between the Mayacamas Mountains and Vaca Mountains for 30 miles, from Calistoga to Los Carneros. Napa has a wide array of soil types for such a small region, from volcanic foothills to alluvial valley floors, which help to produce varied and complex wines.

Tropical fruit and floral notes entice, while a rich, complex palate offers a weighty mouthfeel. Vibrant fruit flavors leave a impression of this aromatic, fruit-forward wine. Ideal for non-Sauvignon Blanc drinkers seeking a flavorful and harmonious blend. "Floral, apricot. Well-balanced. Lingering finish" - 2025 International Women's Winemaking Challenge
