Cadaretta 2013 “SBS” Sauvignon Blanc, Columbia Valley

Cadaretta 2013 “SBS” Sauvignon Blanc, Columbia Valley

Cadaretta Wines is a new winery with a long history; It was founded in 2008 as an offshoot of Anderson & Middleton, a logging company founded in 1899.

Their wines follow the path that many great wines from Columbia Valley follow: toward France. In particular, toward refined but muscular Rhone and Bordeaux-style red wine blends.

The SBS is the winery’s only white in their portfolio, and it’s a worthy addition. It is a classic Bordeaux-style blend of  Sauvignon blanc and Sémillon (28% of the blend).

Gooseberry, brine, and honey on the nose, flavors of cantaloupe, crushed white flowers, and a waxy honey element. The palate is rounder and richer than Sauvignon Blanc, but without any dilution to the zip zap zing of acidity.

  1. It’s good to know about this kind of history about a wine. People will have an idea now how and where it is made. There’s still a big demand for wines these days and with post like this, consumers will have an idea now what to get for their own wine collection.
