Alex and Ryan Present: Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2017
Alex and Ryan Present: Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc Semillon 2017
About the wine
You've got the inside track on Napa's great white
- This is a classic French blend of crisp Sauvignon (58%) and full-bodied Semillion (42%) that's totally Californian. It's super ripe, so there are no grassy flavors – just a mouthful of wild tropical fruit and a splendiferous, rich finish. You won't believe where Alex & Ryan found it...
- World-famous, uber-posh Napa. In this Cab-centric region, Semillon and Sauv Blanc are nearly extinct... but with your support, this insider winemaking duo snatched up two vineyards' worth – from a family-owned historical estate and a meticulously-farmed Rutherford vineyard. What a find!
- Now, there is a catch – to get the claim to this wine, Alex & Ryan had to make a few promises... including keeping the vineyard names a secret. But, they're 100% allowed to brag about how delicious it is!
Best before
Enjoy today. Enjoy more tomorrow.
Serving advice
Serve this lightly chilled (not too cold or you'll lose the fruity bouquet!) and always pour for your friends before you pour your own glass. That's just manners.
Food match
We're tempted to go all French on this one with Moules Marinieres (or as normal people say, Mussels!") dripping in briny garlic sauce with a crisp zippy glass of this Sauv/Sem blend. Yum!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Alex Farber
- Alex's first job out of winemaking school was for a famous Napa Valley winery. She absorbed its classic traditions and techniques, but she knew her own dream – to make classic wines joyous and modern – would be years away.
- Most young winemakers have to work 10, 15, even 20 years to earn a Winemaker title. Alex's big dreams weren't going to wait, so she asked Angels for a jumpstart, and they launched her into the big leagues.
- It was a clever investment. Not only is Alex one of Naked's top winemakers, she's earned Best in Class, Double Gold and Gold medals for her independent wines produced with your support. And she's just getting started!
