Rochioli Estate Grown Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2016

95 points - limited                                    New release from Rochioli!  The 2016 Sauvignon Blanc is 100% Estate grown with  limited production.  Rochioli wines are hand crafted and highly exclusive. 95 Points Wine & Spirits:  "If you’ve never been blown away by a California sauvignon blanc, you owe it to yourself to taste this wine. Over half of the fruit comes from an old vineyard that Joe Rochioli, Jr., planted in 1959; it’s now farmed by his son Tom. Old vines, as well as the sunny, temperate climate and stony soil along the banks of the Russian River, drew the fruit to a precise, focused intensity in 2016. You’ll find ripe, luscious flavors of papaya and peach –even redder tones of wild strawberry- tied to a profound sense of mineral depth. For all of its power, the fruit remains vivid and mouthwatering, as pure as spring water."
