Production & Heritage

The Foodies brand is oriented toward value-driven, food-pairing-friendly wines sourced from California vineyards. California Sauvignon Blanc typically sees cool, stainless-steel fermentation to preserve aromatic freshness and acidity — a method that favors clean varietal expression over oak influence. Unlike cooler-climate renditions from New Zealand or the Loire Valley, California Sauvignon Blanc tends toward rounder tropical fruit notes balanced by moderate herbaceousness, a direct reflection of the state's warmer growing conditions and extended hang time.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Expect an initial lift of grapefruit and lemon zest, followed by hints of fresh-cut grass and white flowers. The aromatics are clean and direct, typical of stainless-steel-fermented Sauvignon Blanc.

Taste: The entry is crisp with citrus-driven acidity — lime pith and green apple come forward first. Mid-palate, the wine softens into riper notes of white peach and melon, reflecting California's generous sunshine. A subtle mineral thread keeps the fruit from tipping into sweetness.

Finish: The finish is light to medium in length with a tart, refreshing snap. Lingering notes of citrus rind and a faint herbal quality provide a clean close.

How to Drink Foodies Sauvignon Blanc

Serve well-chilled, between 45–50°F, in a standard white wine glass to concentrate the aromatics. This is a wine designed to drink young and fresh — aging is not its purpose. A Classic Spritzer (wine, soda water, lemon twist) keeps things light and sessionable for warm-weather drinking. It also works in a Hugo Spritz (Sauvignon Blanc, elderflower syrup, sparkling water, mint) where the wine's herbal quality complements the elderflower. For a bolder option, try it in a White Wine Sangria with sliced stone fruit, citrus, and a splash of brandy — the wine's acidity provides the necessary backbone.

Best For

• Weeknight dinners paired with lighter proteins like grilled chicken or fish tacos
