Clay Shannon has become one of California’s most respected champions of sustainable, mountain-grown wines, but his whites often fly under the radar. The Shannon family’s commitment to wildland farming, biodiversity, and hands-on care gives their wines a lift and purity that’s hard to find at any price. Their Sauvignon Blanc is crafted with a completely different mindset from their reds; here the focus is on energy, aromatics, and dazzling brightness, not weight or power.
Grown in Lake County’s high-elevation vineyards, the fruit benefits from cool mountain nights and crisp northern breezes that lock in acidity. The soils here - volcanic ash, gravel, and clay - give the wine a clean mineral line beneath its juicy fruit. Fermentation is done cool and slow to preserve delicate aromatics, resulting in a Sauvignon Blanc that feels like a burst of fresh air: zesty, citrus-driven, and deliciously clean.
