Sauvignon Vert
White wine grape · reported 2000–2025
Further reading: UC Davis Foundation Plant Services
Sauvignon Vert is a white grape grown in California under a name the atlas could not resolve to a single confirmed European identity — VIVC lists the name across more than one variety record. It is registered with Foundation Plant Services as its own entry, distinct from Sauvignon Blanc despite the similar name. CDFA crush data run continuously from 2000 to 2025, with bearing acreage first reported in 2014 and reaching 55 acres by 2025, concentrated in Napa, Sonoma, San Joaquin, Contra Costa, and Tulare counties. Crush volumes are small, topping out around 25 tons in a year, with prices as high as $4,500 a ton.

What is published
Counts describe what this atlas holds for Sauvignon Vert, not what California grows. A zero is a published answer: it means the source names the grape and reports nothing under it, or does not name it at all.
