La Crema Sonoma County Sauvignon Blanc California White Wine

34 shoppers had rated this Sauvignon Blanc as of August 12, 2026. Their average is 4.68 out of five. The stores we checked in September 2026 did not agree on one price, and that spread is saved for the end, so the wine comes first. La Crema dates its founding to 1979 in the Russian River Valley, inside the same Sonoma County this bottle names, and Jackson Family Wines says the winery is now part of its group. As for the grape, our grape research describes Sauvignon Blanc as a white usually made dry, with refreshing acidity. Official regional guides describe citrus, green herbs and tropical fruit across the category; cooler sites can emphasize the citrus and green notes, while warmer or riper fruit can lean more tropical.

Now the spread. In checks on August 10 and 11, 2026, this bottle ran $16.99 to $28.99 across the stores we checked. The same wine, priced differently from store to store, is the one thing this entry cannot settle from a distance. This page can only show what those September 2026 checks found; the price on the day you shop comes from the store itself.

La Crema's product page for the current vintage adds the numbers behind the grape research above: the wine finishes at 13.5 percent alcohol, with 5.6 grams per litre of total acidity and a pH of 3.26. The producer states the wine goes through barrel fermentation, which it credits with adding volume and texture, balanced by the grape's own crisp acidity on the finish. The tasting note describes fresh aromas of nectarine, lime and melon with hints of wet stone and flint, and flavors of grapefruit and white peach alongside tropical mango and guava, the producer's words for what it calls a juicy, exotic character. The bottle also carries IWCA Certified Sustainable status, the same certification the winery applies across its lineup.

Our call: this suits the shopper who buys on producer history and process, the Sonoma County name backed by a producer whose Russian River Valley founding goes back to 1979 and by a published technical sheet naming barrel fermentation and a sustainability certification. Pass it by if you will not compare stores first; the spread our checks recorded means the same bottle can cost noticeably more one store over, and nothing about the wine changes with the sticker.
