Pleasant and what you'd expect for a SB from Napa, and from a great producer. Leaves me wanting more though.

Pretty Classic in style, which fits Montelena. The Sauv Blanc program just keeps getting better.

Fruity and soft, this vintage the winery aged it in oak, softening the acidity. Very pleasant quaffer

Lithe, old-world style. Classy and restrained. Lemon peel, great acid.

A little light in the aromatics, some crisp green and grass influence. Round mouthfeel with crisp acidity. Easy drinking, straightforward.
