Sauvignon Blanc, Peju

grapefruit • white peach • river stone

Vibrant Sauvignon Blanc with lemon zest, grapefruit, and ripe white peach, backed by a little pineapple and a stony edge that keeps everything crisp. The texture is light but not thin, with a clean, mouthwatering finish that keeps the fruit feeling bright rather than sweet. Aged in stainless steel, the wine stays focused and energetic, letting the citrus and orchard fruit carry the palate.

Peju has been family-owned in Rutherford since 1983, working with Bordeaux varieties that thrive in Napa Valley’s warm days and cool evenings. While Cabernet often gets the attention, Sauvignon Blanc has long been part of the valley’s story, showing how Napa can deliver both ripe fruit and real freshness in the same glass.

Fun Fact: Sauvignon Blanc naturally produces aromatic compounds called methoxypyrazines, which are responsible for the herbal notes people associate with the grape — things like basil, lemongrass, and sometimes even a hint of jalapeño.
