Our Wine Tasting Expert Says:

What better way to illustrate the wine's goodness than with a sip from Sawtooth Winery's yields. This winery is located in the heart of the lush Hidden Valley, surrounded by farmland of grains, sugar beets, and dairy production. Everywhere you go you're in sight of the mountains.

Sawtooth Winery's strength is in its control over the vineyards used to grow the grapes, and also in its steadfast use of French oak barrels in which the juice ferments and ages. For example, the Cabernet Sauvignon vintages were put straight into the barrels after pressing. For the Chardonnays, 70% were put straight into the barrels while the remainder was fermented in stainless steel tanks. The two parts were then blended for maximum fruit and oak taste.
