About the wine
Zesty Sauvignon Blanc - a classic summery sipper from a Washington dream team
- Light and citrusy with a bright, crisp set of fruity flavors and refreshing finish, Katy and Justin Michaud’s Washington Sauvignon Blanc is an easy-sipping, summery delight every Angel deserves to try.
- Your funding helped this Washington winemaking power couple source their Sauvignon Blanc from a pair of primo Columbia Valley vineyards, balancing the tastebud-tingling citrusy character from a cooler valley corner with the more fruity and tropical flavors in the riper grapes from a slightly warmer pocket.
- For a zippy Northwest sipper you can savor all summer, Katy and Justin’s Sauvignon Blanc is just the ticket. Grab a bottle and complete any picnic or afternoon sunbathing on the porch.
Best before
We think this wine is ready to go, so no need to age it at all. We always suggest Angels let new wines rest for a week or two after receiving because shipping can cause slight changes in the wine, but other than that this wine is ready to drink. It will age for 5-7 years, but after that I'm not sure how the packaging will hold up. After a couple of years the wine will probably seem a little softer and smoother, with perhaps a touch more complexity. Right off the bat the wine is going to show its fruity aromatics and bright bracing acidity.
Serving advice
We love it served chilled. The colder you serve a wine the more the acidity shows in the finish. As the wine warms you can get a little more aromatics and slightly softer wine. Try it at a few different temperatures to find your own sweet spot.
Food match
Sauvignon Blanc is a great food wine. The acidity makes it great for cleaning the palate between bites. Pair this with your favorite soft cheese and bruschetta for an appetizer. Some of the natural green notes make this a great wine to pair with veggies. I love a nice glass of Sauvignon Blanc with some grilled fish with fresh lemon. You can even pair this with a lemon tart or danish to complement something sweet. Have fun and enjoy!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Justin & Katy Michaud
Katy and Justin Michaud are two of Washington's most talented young winemakers – the folks behind award-winning wines at Canoe Ridge, Kim Crawford, Covey Run and Coyote Canyon.
They’ve had huge success individually - and thanks to Angels, this husband-wife duo are creating their own wines together (for the first time ever!) They’re psyched to join forces and introduce more spectacular cool-climate wines to Angels across the US.
Washington produces vibrant, fruit-driven wines that you just can't capture in California – the moment we tasted Katy and Justin's wines we knew we were onto something that would give Napa a run for its money!
