Fans of this pure, clean, crisp mineral-driven gem will not be disappointed with the 2019 Sauvignon Blanc. Opening with vibrant lemon and lime juice scents with hints of mandarin peel, coriander seed, chalk dust and wild thyme, it bursts with zesty flavor in the mouth. Medium-bodied, there? a lovely satiny suggestion to the texture and lots of oyster shell and pebbly layers, finishing deliciously refreshing. -WA
The estate itself was established in 1882 by George Schonewald, who planted grapes and built the Victorian farmhouse which is there today. It came under its current ownership in 1972 when the Novak family bought the estate, and their first Cabernet Sauvignon wine was released in 1982. When the history of Napa great vineyards is written, the 40-acre Spottswoode Vineyard will be counted among the finest grand cru vineyards of the region. Chateau Margaux in Napa Valley.
