Fresh pink grapefruit aromas, sweet citrus and hay crack with freshness in the nose. Fresh melon tones balance the pink grapefruit on the palate, accentuated by ripe acidity and a delicate citric mineral nuance.

Over 30 years ago, Jack Cakebread came to photograph the Napa Valley for a book, and while there he happened to mention his interest in owning a vineyard to some family friends who had a ranch in Rutherford. When he returned home that day, the phone rang and it was his family friends who offered to sell his property. That same day, he returned to the valley to make his best offer, and Cookie Cellars was born.

Reflecting on the many profound changes in the wine industry over the past 33 years, such as innovative farming practices and new ways of working with consumers, the family notes that their core values have remained the same. The commitment to produce wines of the highest quality and dedication to the family has continued uninterrupted, as their first small vineyard has evolved into a thriving winery with international distribution.

California is known mainly for its Cabernet and Chardonnay, but they also produce very good Sauvignon Blancs. These wines tend to be highly acidic and blend well with food.

Sauvignon Blancs in California tend to be a little more fruity than those from France, and a little lighter in body and color than a typical Chardonnay.
