We may be little, but our wines are big on flavor.
Our Wines Come From Estate Grown Grapes
Uvas is the Spanish word for grapes. But Little Uvas is not the size of our grapes, rather our name describes the size of the vineyard, the company, and the level of wine production. We personally care for our vines on our property in San Martin, CA using organic growing best practices.
Our vines include a unique block of Santa Clara Valley grown Sauvignon Blanc as well as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, and a very special small grove of Barbera grapes.

On the nose there's clear notes of lemongrass and lime pith followed by a PUNCH of honeydew melon. The palate accentuates the lime pith with a clean finish. This wine is best served slightly chilled; too cold and it masks the melon notes. It's 13.6% alcohol - a fully ripe Sauvignon Blanc - but in perfect balance.
