I haven't tried all of these, but I was reasonably impressed with
the judging at the Sonoma County Harvest Fair Wine Competition so
this list of winners may be useful in the search for Sauvignon Blancs.

Only wineries from Sonoma county enter this competition, but as
you may note from even this small list of winners, the competition
is very stiff.

Class 110 -- Saufignon Blanc -- Fume Blanc styles up to 0.7 r.s.
