Dashe Cellars sources this Chenin Blanc from old vines in the Clarksburg AVA, a Sacramento Delta region known for cool breezes and fog. The grapes are whole-cluster pressed and fermented in concrete eggs, which preserve freshness while adding subtle texture.

No oak and minimal intervention highlight the grape’s natural acidity and orchard fruit character. This bottling reflects Dashe’s move toward terroir-driven, low-input California whites.

"This wine is lush, bright, with aromas of peach, apple, white flowers, guava, pineapple, and orange blossom honey on the nose. The flavors on the palate are ripe cantaloupe, peaches, Meyer lemon zest, layers of mineral, creating mouth watering texture and a dry juicy finish. Pair with Grilled Sand Dabs" —Tonya Pitts

More about Dashe Cellars

Michael and Anne Dashe started bottling their first Dry Creek Zinfandel in 1996 from vines their family had planted back in 1989. Old-vine fruit from small family vineyards in Sonoma and Mendocino, native yeast ferments, no fining, minimal or no filtration. These are serious California wines from people who've been doing it without trend or compromise. Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah, Riesling. Farm to bottle.
