| Description: | If you've ever had any of the Dagueneau Sauvignon Blancs from France's Loire Valley, then you know those wines are things of beauty. It was over a glass of Dagueneau that brothers Steve and John Dragonette and close friend Brandon Sparks-Gillis decided to leave their jobs at a Los Angeles wine shop and search throughout Santa Barbara's Santa Ynez Valley to find vineyards that could best exemplify the enticing characteristics of this grape. They found those vineyards, and now their Sauvignon Blancs have become some of our favorites in the entire store!. Happy Canyon, with its unique soils and climate - warm to hot summer days and cool to cold evenings - is ideal for promoting full phenolic ripeness while still retaining critical acidity. The organically-farmed Vogelzang is situated on a gently sloping bed of well drained, gravelly loam soil with serpentinite, and Dragonette controls all farming practice, from pruning to canopy management to yield control. Dragonette always does what's needed to help produce the best wines. Only 300 cases were produced, and it's often one of the highest scoring Sauvignon Blancs produced in California!. Jeb Dunnuck 95 Points! - "The 2022 Sauvignon Blanc Vogelzang Vineyard is a touch more exotic, with ripe stone fruits, spicy wood, caramelized orange, and honeyed minerality (there's almost a Riesling-like diesel quality) that carry to a richly textured, medium to full-bodied Sauvignon with nicely integrated acidity, a layered, balanced mouthfeel, and a great finish. It's another impeccably made, impressive Sauvignon Blanc from this team that can be drunk any time over the coming decade.". |
