Ironstone Vineyards | Sauvignon Blanc - NV

Aromas of currant, garam masala, star anise and smoked sausage make for a powerful entry into the nose of this bottling—a fairly priced wine made from Monterey fruit. Generous flavors of roasted plum, smoke and Indian spices show on the palate.

Producer Information

Ironstone Vineyards is a sizeable, family-owned wine producer situated in the Sierra Foothills region of central, inland California. It has more than 2000 hectares (5000 acres) of vineyards in both the Sierra Foothills and Lodi AVAs, which are planted to an array of classic Californian grape varieties including Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Petite Sirah, Viognier, Zinfandel and Pinot Noir. In 1948, founder John Kautz acquired five hectares (12 acres) of land that he planted to vineyard. Today, Ironstone Vineyards is still managed by the Kautz family, who named the estate after the limestone and schist rock slopes from which they carved out their wine cellars – known as the "wine caverns" – and laid the foundations for their winery. The miners who carried out the project said it was like "blasting through iron". The wine caverns have the capacity to hold up to 1500 French and American oak barrels. These provide the ideal temperature and humidity conditions for the storage of wine, remaining at a constant 60? (16?) and 70 percent humidity throughout the year. Ironstone Vineyards makes a wide portfolio of wines and is one of the USA's largest wine companies. The Classic, Reserve and Obsession ranges come under the Ironstone brand name, but the company also produces a number of stand-alone brands including Christine Andrew and Leaping Horse Vineyards.
