Realm Cellars
Napa Valley White Wine 2013
Aromatics are off the charts. Sassafras just jumped out and stuck in my mind even though I've only tasted this wine once. Realm is one of those producers that always seems to deliver, and I always wonder why I don't buy.
Nice review, @Bill Bender!

#lifegoals = making enough money to make this my go-to weeknight wine 😍 I used to (and still) love how it smells to crack open an old book. This tastes like that, in the best way possible. Enjoyed this with Potatoes Anna (heavy on the Kerrygold butter), grilled asparagus, and pork loin. Feeling fat and happy 😬 — 9 years ago

My first shot at the Realm white and it delivered huge. Astounding aromatics of sassafras (yes! @Roman Sukley) and rain soaked vegetation. Melon rind, stream bed and a lively verve. I may be crazy but I get a Haut Brion blanc vibe here. Outstanding with fresh oysters and good company. — 8 years ago
