What better way to kick off the summer sipping season than with a food pairing highlighting our 2025 Sauvignon Blanc?

With notes of grapefruit, honeydew melon, and lemongrass this aromatic white wine is your perfect match for summer days.
This is an especially great opportunity to treat Mom to an early Mother’s Day celebration! (Hint: Mother’s Day is May 10th).
