Renegade Sauvignon Blanc

Husch Renegade Sauvignon Blanc continues in the wild tradition of the debut 2000 vintage. For this unique wine we step back from our traditional model for Sauvignon Blanc and break the rules. To begin, we do not add yeast to this wine. Instead we allow the native or “renegade” yeasts residing in the vineyard and winery to start the fermentation process. We believe that this process gives the wine additional complexity and nuance. We also age the wine in oak barrels – a common technique for Chardonnay – but not the norm for Sauvignon Blanc.
