USA : CALIFORNIA : NAPA COUNTY : NAPA VALLEY Sauvignon Blanc DRY, FULL BODIED, RICH, FRESH, LITTLE OAK Very aromatic with steely notes of ripe green apple, mint, quince and fresh herbs. The palate is bright and fresh with lots of power and richness. This counter play gives the wine an interesting dynamic that plays out well. ECOLOGY: Conventional FOOD PAIRING: Seafood

Really awesome acidity. This should lay down a bit. Leans a bit more to the grassy and stony mineral side. Unripe guava, green apple, grapefruit pith, flint and chalk.

Acid driven Sauvignon blanc. Very refreshing, touch of citrus, and was quite a good pair with shellfish.

Delicious and crisp! Exactly what I look for in a Sauvignon blanc. Knew it would be good because it’s the side project of Dan Petroski (Larkmead).

Incredibly fresh Sauvignon Blanc from Napa. Very unexpected. Nose definitely identifies as SB, but palate has none of the overbearing grassiness or anything like that. Very tasty.
