Here are the new values by Sawtooth.

Sawtooth

July 12, 2024

One of Idaho’s oldest wineries, Sawtooth began back in 1987. Located in Idaho’s Snake River Valley, the estate vineyards surrounding Sawtooth Winery were once rich pastures owned by Charles Pintler. The Pintlers saw a greater potential in the steep, south sloping hills, and set out to grow wine grapes. A range of plantings including Riesling, Pinot Gris, Syrah, Merlot and Tempranillo are all here at this 400 acre vineyard. Winemaker Meredith Smith has made some good values.  Good wine does not have to be expensive. All of these wines are offered under 30 bucks. I like the 2023 Sawtooth Pinot Gris (OB, 88) which is easy-drinking and a really nice value from this region. Learn more at sawtoothwinery.com and here are my reviews of the new Sawtooth wines.

2023 Sawtooth Pinot Gris- This offers kiwi and lemongrass notes alongside a good sense of tension. Enjoy now. Drink 2024-2028- 88

2023 Sawtooth Chardonnay- Peach and pear notes mark this lighter boded 2023 Chardonnay. Crisp, this would pair well on a hot summer day. Drink 2024-2028- 88

2023 Sawtooth Sauvignon Blanc- Lemon zest and lime combine with minerals on the palate. Bright, serve very cool to take in the minerality. Drink 2024-2026- 88

2022 Sawtooth Red Blend- Forward and juicy black cherry and plum notes combine with a smooth mouthfeel on the palate. Enjoy now. Drink 2024-2028- 88
