This is just about half Napa and half Mendocino counties. It might be the variety of fruit and/or the winemaking, but this is a very pleasant SB. I myself tend to not enjoy too many Sauvignon Blanc wines from Napa, finding them too pithy and abrasively acidic and citrus leaning into grapefruit.
The ones that provide more melon and tropical notes tend to be more my speed.
This one offers a nose of lime zest, lemon, yellow melon, loads of minerality and fresh garden greens.
On the palate, well balanced flavors of citrus, melon and juicy tropical notes with hints of green snappy new growth and stone. The acidity is round and generous without being harsh or overbearing with moderate alcohol. A very tasty and refreshing wine.
This winery is green, sustainable and even Kosher for those who seek these qualities.
