Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara Sauvignon Blanc

A fan favorite, this bright and crisp Sauvignon Blanc from our wine region to the north Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara, is the quintessential California Wine. Flavors of fresh green apples, lemon, lime and grapefruit. Hints of guava as well on the palate. A slight fizz to tickle the tongue, and a long-lasting refreshing finish. This wine never disappoints and will make you turn your head to taste again.

Why Did we Select Santa Barbara Sauvignon Blanc?

AJA Vineyards is dedicated to crafting both an Estate Sauvignon Blanc and the Happy Canyon Sauvignon Blanc, ensuring exceptional quality in each bottle. Our winemakers consider Happy Canyon to be a “sister AVA” to the Malibu Coast region, with similar climate and soil types just an hour and a half away from our estate.

Malibu and Santa Barbara are both remarkable wine regions, each with its own distinct flavor profiles and winemaking traditions. Together, they contribute to the rich tapestry of California wine, making them standout destinations for wine enthusiasts.

The warm sun on the rain-shadow side of Santa Barbara’s mountainous terroir provides warm yet coastal weather that allows Sauvignon Blanc to flourish. Malibu’s wine region is renowned for its warm yet unique coastal terroir, which influences the flavor profiles of its wines, resulting in distinctive and flavorful varietals.

Choosing AJA Vineyards means embracing a commitment to quality and craftsmanship, where each bottle reflects the exceptional terroir of these regions and showcases a dedication to sustainable practices that enhance the wine’s character.
