Steele Shooting Star Sauvignon Blanc 2000

Year in and year out, we are always happy with the quality of the Sauvignon Blanc grapes grown at the Dorn's Las Lomas Vineyard. The vineyard is located on a bench comprised of volcanic soils above Kelsey Creek. The fruit is always full of fig and melon flavors without any of the grassy chracteristics that can be part of Sauvignon Blanc. Lake County is a perfect place for the culture of Sauvignon Blanc grapes. The combination of well-drained soils, medium altitude and cool evenings gives the most flavorful grapes in all of California.

Food Pairing: The wine has a fresh zesty character. Serve with rich foods such as Chicken Dijon, grilled foods, or pesto sauced pasta.
