The Wagners are California royalty. There’s pretty much nothing they haven’t achieved and no new project they won’t take on. They have virtually no weaknesses in their portfolio. If I had to pick a soft spot, the only thing I could possibly argue is Sauvignon Blanc. At least, there really hasn’t ever been enough to offer up in an email. But unbeknownst to me, the Wagners have been addressing this need.
Early this year, the Wagner Family forward thinking venture into the Suisun Valley officially began with the grand opening of a new state of the art winery right in the heart of the tiny AVA. A prominent up & coming region with similar weather to that of Napa, the added acreage in this region, means a focus on non-Cabernet production. Enter the family’s Sauvignon Blanc.
The Caymus Family Emmolo Sauv Blanc combines fruit from both Suisan and Napa Valley and is left in the more than capable hands of Chuck’s daughter, Jenny. The things she’s been able to do with the family’s Emmolo wines are extremely impressive, and she continues to add to her production each year.
The wine itself is flush with a stone fruit/minerality combination. It’s not grassy or overly ripe, instead featuring delicate fruit made in stainless steel that comes out energetic and focused. A pale gold color in the grass, it attacks with layers of guava, white peach and green melon followed by lively acidity and that mineral cut that SB lovers crave.

Elena Walch’s newly released 2022 Pinot Bianco continues to be the best example of Pinot Blanc anywhere. She’s the undisputed queen. There’s so much energy in this new release. Super light in color, with a busy nose that boasts ripe aromas of citrus, granny smith apple with a hint of freshly mowed grass. Made entirely in stainless steel, the wine is expressive, fresh and finishes as clean and tight as can be. Definitely will continue the run of 90+ scores once this one is reviewed.
The Zenato family has built up quite the reputation for delivering exceptional value with their red and whites in Veneto. Their Pinot Grigio is a particularly great value, punching way above its weight class. Delicately scented and soft on the palate, it offers classic citrus and floral notes in a balanced elegant style. It’s smooth and refreshing with a long, pleasant finish. Great with food.
Glistening pale yellow-green to the rim, infused with mouth-watering aromas of ripe apple, pear and quince, and crushed almonds with honey and rich creamy middle and a fantastic rush of acidity and minerality that are present throughout. A calling card of Bonhomme’s Vire-Clesse, if you closed your eyes and took a sip, it would have you convinced you were drinking Meursault at least a 3x price tag.
Just in time, we got back Vincent Ricard’s all-time great white wine bargain. This is a crisp, clean and flat out delicious Loire Valley Sauvignon Blanc. The protege to the Silex-style of Dagueneau – who over the last 15 years has produced flawless and beloved white wines that at last count were on the wine lists of over 36 Michelin-starred restaurants. This is a great house white and one that can surely hold its own with just about everything on the table.
