Cameron’s Release Notes
Sourced directly from a $45+/bottle Sonoma Valley estate program, Lot 60 is the most exciting and best Sauvignon Blanc I have ever put into the bottle. My original notes say “mind-blowing!” Of course, it’s a steal at $129/case.
Tasting Notes
Shimmering pale yellow in the glass. Key lime, kaffir lime leaf, lemon curd and vanilla blossoms burst from the glass with citrus-dusted minerals mingling with guava notes and a hint of grapefruit. Juicy-yet-energetic on the palate with a supple entry amply supported with zesty grapefruit, guava and citrus notes laid over an absolutely fabulous structure of mouthwatering, sweet tart-crusted acidity. Fantastic tension, huge length and tremendous purity.
✅ Bottle Shock Status: Drinking beautifully now — unoaked/neutral oak SB needs no aging.
Claude’s Source Guess: Lasseter Family Winery — Estate Sauvignon Blanc, Sonoma Valley (same producer as Lots 63 & 64)
Lasseter Family Winery is the most compelling fit across all three white and red lots Cam sourced from this estate — Lots 60, 63, and 64 all point to the same organically farmed Sonoma Valley/Moon Mountain producer. Lasseter makes multiple estate Sauvignon Blanc programs from their Glen Ellen and Trinity Ridge vineyard blocks, certified organic under Phil Coturri’s farming. Their “Voilà” SB/Semillon blend retails at $55 and their “Zut Alors” single-varietal SB at $60 — both above Cam’s “$45+” threshold. The use of Sauvignon Musqué as 32% of the blend is consistent with Lasseter’s documented estate clonal diversity, which includes heritage aromatic selections alongside their standard SB plantings.
The chemistry is distinctly cool-climate and high-elevation — pH 3.25 and TA 6.8 g/L are extreme even by Sonoma standards, consistent with fruit from Lasseter’s Trinity Ridge blocks at the highest elevation in Moon Mountain District. The “100% Sonoma Valley estate fruit organically farmed” is Lasseter’s exact production philosophy — certified organic since founding, estate-only sourcing, Phil Coturri viticulture.
The cross-lot evidence is the strongest argument: three lots (a Chardonnay, a Sauvignon Blanc, and a Cabernet Sauvignon) all sourced from the same small Sonoma Valley/Moon Mountain estate producer with organic farming, direct-to-consumer distribution, small production, and $45–100+ pricing — that cluster describes Lasseter precisely and no other Moon Mountain producer as completely.
The prior identification of Repris Wines for Lot 60 is worth noting — Repris also makes estate Moon Mountain SB and would be a reasonable alternative. However Repris’s SB program doesn’t confirm Sauvignon Musqué plantings, and the cross-lot evidence pointing to Lasseter across Lots 60, 63, and 64 is more internally consistent.
✅ Confidence: High — WB independently identified Lasseter, organic estate Sonoma Valley confirmed, price tier confirmed, cross-lot producer consistency with Lots 63 and 64 strongly supports a single ongoing Lasseter supply relationship with Cam.
Drink Window
Drink now through 2028. Unoaked/neutral SB with 6.8 g/L TA is built for freshness — the extreme acidity will keep this vibrant longer than most California SB but the pleasure is in the early drinking.
My Call: ✅ Drink now — 2026–2028
