2020 Louwala Wines Columbia Valley, Washington Sauvignon Blanc

The appellation is located in central, south-central and south-eastern Washington, with part of the appellation spilling across the border into Oregon. It spans more than 11 million acres in all, and is home to more than 99% of all of Washington’s vinifera acreage.

Cabernet Sauvignon is the most widely planted variety, followed by Merlot, Chardonnay, Riesling and Syrah. However, more than 30 vinifera varieties are currently planted in this region — including Sauvignon Blanc.

Variety typicity and pure fruit aromas and flavors are the hallmarks of wine from the Columbia Valley, and for Sauvignon Blanc, that equates with an “orchard blend” ranging from citrus to kiwi, from passion fruit to yellow fruit, and from Yuzu lemon to white peach. You’ll experience all of those impressions in the 2020 Louwala Sauvignon Blanc, an easy-drinking, juicy and fun-to-quaff Washington wine.
