Purchase Fortress Musque Clone Sauvignon Blanc 2006

Fortress is establishing a formidable record for Sauvignon Blanc. The ’06 is rich, elegant, and enormously drinkable.

The Red Hills of Lake County is proving to be an extremely promising source of Bordeaux varieties, both red and white. — S.H. (5/1/2008)
