Winemaker Notes
The cool climate of our Monterey vineyards provides the ideal setting for Sauvignon Blanc. Our 1997 Fume Blanc shows the bright citrus flavors typical of Sauvignon Blanc, softened with melon and fig flavors and a kiss of oak.
Appearance: Golden yellow.
Aroma: Ripe fruit, dried fig and hints of oak with a refined, floral accent.
Flavor: Rich, mouthfilling, round and soft with flavors of sweet melon. Finishes crisp.

Spectator
Estancia, based in Monterey, was founded in 1986. The name Estancia is roughly translated from the Spanish word for "estate," and emphasizes our conviction that the world's best wines capture the essence of their place of origin. At Estancia we control the process from the start—from the trials in our experimental vineyard blocks, to planting, harvesting, fermenting and aging the wines. We've built a winery that allows us to devote the same attention to detail in winemaking that we give to our grapes. We use open-top fermenters and small basket presses for our Pinot Noir and new red-wine fermentation tanks that are fit for the diverse blocks in our Paso Robles vineyards. It is this hands-on crafting of the wines, from grapes to bottle, that result in our superior wine quality.
