2024 Summer Dreams 'Walking on Venice Beach' Sauvignon Blanc Sonoma Coast 6pk 6x750ml

A love letter to the spirit of the California Summer. Each wine is made in the signature Jayson Woodbridge style and has a range of expressions based upon the selection of unique micro-vineyard blocks, dappled across the Western Sonoma Coast of California. Made with Jayson Woodbridge acting as spiritual guide on a white winemaking journey with the very inspired and talented winemaker, Ashley Holland, on a holy quest for the smallest and most exquisite little vineyards.

For more than 25 years, Jayson Woodbridge has built a reputation as one of Napa Valley’s most uncompromising winemakers, earning over 61 perfect 100-point scores for his Bordeaux-driven wines under the Hundred Acre label. Precision, intensity, and an obsessive focus on site have always defined his work.

Over the last decade, that obsession led him west. Drawn to the raw beauty, extreme conditions, and singular soils of the West Sonoma Coast, Jayson began quietly sourcing fruit and experimenting outside of Napa, determined to explore what Sauvignon Blanc could become in a radically different environment. Rather than extending Hundred Acre, he chose to create an entirely new project, Summer Dreams, giving the wines their own identity and the freedom to evolve independently, focused purely on site expression, restraint, and nuance.

“Walking on Venice Beach” takes its name from Jayson’s first walk on a California beach, which he remembers as “cool and wild at the same time.” The fruit comes from cool-climate hillside vineyards on the West Sonoma Coast and the Eastern Slope, including what the winery describes as one of the oldest Sauvignon Blanc plantings in California, dating to 1980. Goldridge soils and elevations of 900 to 1,900 feet give the wine its stony minerality and energy.

The 2024 Summer Dreams “Walking on Venice Beach” Sauvignon Blanc is about 80% Sauvignon Blanc and 20% Sauvignon Musqué, an aromatic clone that adds floral lift. It’s fermented and aged on its lees in a mix of acacia barrels, oak puncheons, and stainless steel, which builds texture while keeping the wine bright and focused.
