Starmont Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Starmont has deep roots in Napa Valley and in St. Helena in particular. It was a brand that originally was launched by Merryvale as a second label in the late 1980’s, a fairly revolutionary concept at the time. The only “problem” was that the brand quickly developed such a strong reputation that it was spun off as its own entity about 20 years ago. They’re known for their exceptional quality and consistency and with the same winemaker at the helm for decades, there’s no surprise as to why.

What I’m sure most people don’t realize is that the property is now owned and managed by none other than Albert Bichot, the legendary Burgundy producer who made this strategic American investment to expand their portfolio of exceptional wines. That has only helped Starmont take things to the next level as far as sustainable practices and French influence in the vineyard.
