Davis Bynum Sauvignon Blanc Pairs With Hackleback Caviar

To some this is a good Sauvignon Blanc summer sipper but there is more to it. 

Wine producer Davis Bynum  focuses on producing wines from single vineyards in the Russian River Valley of Sonoma County. The Davis Bynum Virginia Block Sauvignon Blanc grapes comes from the Jane’s Vineyard and from the block of grapes named after his wife Virginia.

This 2016 is lively with its citrus and honeydew melon notes. To give this wine its medium body, neutral french oak barrels (132 gallon barrels ) were used during the wine making. The refreshing finish makes this a great summer casual wine.

So what better way to enjoy this wine then with Casual Caviar from Lady Elena Caviar. Our Hackleback caviar on a blini is the perfect summers snack to enjoy with this 2016 Davis Bynum Virginia Block Sauvignon Blanc.

One third of the grapes are selected for this wine and the rest are sold off.This is one of the white wines that are age worthy. This is a 2010 vintage tasting fresh in 2017.
