Banshee Sauvignon Blanc Sonoma Coast 2022

91 Points, Wine Enthusiast – 90 Points, Wine Spectator – 90 Points, James Suckling

The beauty of Banshee wines is that they are exceptional values and always delightful to drink. They overdeliver at a level that very few can compete with. Wine Spectator, America’s stingiest wine publication, found themselves as big fans of the wine, writing, “Vibrant and distinctive, with fresh lemon, lime and pear flavors marked by lemongrass and fresh-clipped mint.” Not your average Sauvignon Blanc tasting note, is it? The fact of the matter is whenever you can get a Sonoma Coast Sauvignon Blanc for under $20 with three scores of 90 points or more, you don’t walk – you run!

Intricate herbs and spices accompany concentrated fruit flavors in this well-balanced and well-built wine. High notes of minerals and thyme meet savory and citrus flavors backed by lively acidity.

90 Points, Wine Spectator
Vibrant and distinctive, with fresh lemon, lime and pear flavors marked by lemongrass and fresh-clipped mint. Features notes of fresh ginger and dried pineapple, while a hint of honeysuckle lingers.

90 Points, James Suckling
An extra-ripe and creamy version of sauvignon blanc, this has some of the heft of a chardonnay but with snappy citrus flavors and a more rounded and ripe honeydew melon and peach character.

I’ve continued to be impressed and, admittedly, a bit caught off guard by the Banshee wines each time. It feels to me like a winery that’s been around forever, but in reality it’s been less than 15 years. I think a lot of that is due to how popular their wines have become, and for good reason.

Banshee’s wines offer buyers some of the best values in California out of much-beloved Sonoma County. They don’t make strictly value wines–some of their single-vineyard stuff can get up into the $70-80/bottle range–but for values like this Sauvignon Blanc, they’re incredibly tough to beat!
