We taste and review Trader Joe's Super Happy Sauvignon Blanc 2023, a $9.99 exclusive made by acclaimed Paso Robles winemaker Field Recordings from Happy Canyon of Santa Barbara grapes.

• Field Recordings proprietor Andrew Jones specializes in finding forgotten vineyards and transforming them into unique wines
• Happy Canyon is the easternmost and warmest AVA in Santa Barbara, with maritime influences from three sides
• Unlike New Zealand styles, this Sauvignon Blanc has a Bordeaux-inspired profile with tropical fruit notes
• The wine features a surprising hint of jalapeño-like spice along with apple, pear, and guava flavors
• Fermented in stainless steel and aged for seven months to balance its natural acidity
• Delivers complexity with "first and second acts" of flavor development - unusual at the $10 price point
• Available exclusively at Trader Joe's for $9.99
