Sauvignon Blanc, Napa Valley 2022
USA, Napa Valley
Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon
$25-$50
Description
A classic example of Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc. Cooler areas of Napa Valley provide fruit with a solid, crisp backbone while the Semillon (14%) is grown on the Groth Oakville Estate vineyard and is harvested with the Estate Sauvignon Blanc, contributing roundness and weight to the mouthfeel. 100% barrel fermented (neutral barrels) and aged on fine lees for 3 months. Tasting Notes: Light lemon-yellow in color with fresh aromas of nectarine, pineapple, lemon and wet stone. Tart acidity enhances flavors of mixed citrus, guava and honeydew melon. The juicy finish leaves you craving another sip.
