Clay Shannon has always been a bit of a maverick. In 1996, he decided to buck convention and set out on his own to establish a progressive, pioneering winery and ranch in Lake County, California.

This wild, challenging terrain captured Shannon’s imagination and inspired his uncompromising commitment to the land itself. “We wanted to grow the best fruit possible,” says Clay, “but we wanted to do it in a way that made us happy living there.”

Today, Shannon Family of Wines includes over 2,000 acres of mountain property, roughly half of which is under vine. This includes transforming 1,000 acres into a regenerative organic farming system that greatly reduces environmental impact.

Clay Shannon Description

For the most balanced and lip-smacking Sauvignon Blanc on the property, we go straight to Betsy’s Vineyard where the northwest-facing slopes and soils offer ideal conditions.

In the nose you find kaffir lime, apricot, passion fruit, and flowery peach as well as some herbaceous notes like bell pepper and grass. On the palate: bright acidity combined with a viscous mouthfeel and a long finish.
