Grgich Hills Estate
Fumé Blanc Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc
Largest biodynamic estate in Napa if I’m not mistaken, and like Rodney Dangerfield does not get enough respect.
Flinty with an intense nose. Gooseberry. Snap pea. These wines seldom disappoint for the money. 2019 firing on all cylinders from 375ml.

Pale lemon with complex aromas of fresh ripe citrus and tropical fruits with grassy floral notes. On the palate flavors of peach, grapefruit and melon with lemongrass and floral herb notes. Long finish ending with juicy fruit, herb and grassy citrus notes, lively acidity with mineral character. Outstanding! Will reward with a few years of age!
