Daily Standard Sauvignon Blanc
California Sauvignon Blanc, priced for Tuesday, not a special occasion.
The story behind Daily Standard
Daily Standard comes out of California, where the fruit is drawn from the state's main white grape growing regions and fermented mostly in stainless steel. No oak staves, no butter, no theater. The point is crisp acidity and ripe fruit, and the winemaking deliberately steers away from the aggressive green herbal edge that turns people off Sauvignon Blanc.
We have poured value California whites across this counter for three decades, and this is the kind of bottle that earns a spot in the fridge door. The blend leans on Sauvignon Blanc's zest with a little Chardonnay weight behind it, which keeps the finish smooth instead of sharp. It is a daily drinker, and the label says so out loud.

Which Daily Standard is right for you?
Every Daily Standard bottle on our shelf is $10.99 for a 750mL, which is the whole argument for the brand. You can buy Daily Standard online at that price and keep two in the house without thinking about it. Compare that to the $11.00 to $15.50 the same bottles fetch at many US merchants and the math gets easy. We do not discount it, because there is nothing to discount. Stock moves fast on the whites, so call ahead if you want a case.
