Bright citrus and a hint of sea-breeze freshness jump from the glass and make you want another sip. Clos du Bois Sauvignon Blanc is a United States white wine with ABV as 13.50% that delivers crisp grapefruit, green apple, lemongrass and a flinty minerality, balanced by brisk acidity and a clean, lingering finish. Typically handled with cool fermentation in stainless steel to preserve its energetic fruit character, this Sauvignon Blanc pairs especially well with Shellfish or Goat Cheese, where its zesty citrus and saline notes lift briny and tangy flavors.
Producer Information: Clos du Bois
Clos du Bois was established in Sonoma County in the 1970s by John Skinner and grew from a single Healdsburg winery into a prominent California producer focused on translating coastal and inland Sonoma terroir into approachable varietal wines; the house emphasizes site selection across Alexander Valley and Russian River pockets, careful fruit sourcing, controlled fermentations and oak management to showcase varietal character rather than heavy manipulation. Their production philosophy centers on blending estate parcels with selected vineyard lots to maintain consistency across appellation-driven bottlings, with attention to modern cellar techniques for whites and thoughtful maturation for reds. Beyond their core Chardonnay and Cabernet-driven labels they offer broader North Coast and Sonoma County ranges, limited-release single-vineyard and reserve bottlings, and a portfolio designed to serve both everyday retail channels and select restaurant lists.

Sauvignon Blanc is a vibrant white wine grape variety known for its crisp and refreshing character, often exhibiting high acidity. This aromatic varietal can range from dry to off-dry, making it a versatile choice for various palates. The flavor profile typically includes bright citrus notes like grapefruit and lemon, complemented by green apple, pear, and tropical fruits such as passion fruit. Additionally, herbal undertones of grass and bell pepper may emerge, along with occasional mineral or flinty characteristics that enhance its complexity.
Originating from renowned wine regions such as the Loire Valley in France and Marlborough in New Zealand, Sauvignon Blanc thrives in diverse climates including California, South Africa, and Australia. Vinification techniques often involve fermentation in stainless steel to preserve freshness; some wines may undergo malolactic fermentation for added creaminess or aging on lees for depth. This light to medium-bodied wine pairs beautifully with seafood dishes like oysters or grilled fish, salads dressed with vinaigrette, goat cheese, light poultry meals, and even Asian cuisine like Thai food. For optimal enjoyment, serve chilled at temperatures between 45–50°F (7–10°C).
