✨ Technical Specifications
Cooper's Hawk Sauvignon Blanc showcases the vibrant, sun-drenched character of California's premier grape-growing regions. Sourced from select vineyards across the state, this wine is crafted to highlight the bright, expressive nature of the Sauvignon Blanc grape. Historically, Sauvignon Blanc found its way to California in the late 19th century, famously championed by pioneering winemakers who recognized the state's potential to rival the great white wines of Bordeaux and the Loire Valley. Cooper's Hawk honors this legacy by utilizing cool-fermentation techniques in stainless steel tanks, preserving the grape's natural acidity, intense citrus aromas, and lively herbaceous undertones without the influence of oak.
