Wilfred Wong: The 2021 Honig Sauvignon Blanc is firm on the palate with a fine, bright finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine delivers aromas and flavors of tropical fruit, earth, citrus, and melon. Enjoy it with a pan-fried English sole.

Producer Information
The Honig Family purchased their 68-acre vineyard in Rutherford in 1964, and sold the grapes they grew to neighboring wineries. In 1980, the family tried their hand at producing their own Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc, to great acclaim. Michael Honig took over management of the winery in 1984, at the age of 22. In 1987, the Honigs made their first Cabernet Sauvignon. Under Michael, Honig’s direction, the winery has grown from a small “garage winery” to a 25 person operation. Using solar power and sustainable farming methods, winemaker, Kristin Belair focuses on two varietals: Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon. This focus allows her to produce handcrafted wines that are a true expression of the vineyard.
