2019 Grgich Hills Cellar Estate Grown Fumé Blanc Napa Valley

Winemaker Notes: This 2019 Sauvignon Blanc (Fumé Blanc) will tantalize your senses with notes of green pepper, snap pea, lime and star fruit. On the front palate, enjoy the fresh fruit flavors of lemon, lime, and green apple supported by an undertone of sea salt.

This wine's chiseled texture, linear acidity, and long finish make it the perfect pairing with filet of sole, pork loin and savory goat cheese.

CRITICAL ACCLAIM


Robert Parker's Wine Advocate - "The 2019 Fume Blanc Estate delivers fabulously flamboyant scents of pink grapefruit, passion fruit and lime cordial with wafts of lemon blossoms, mandarin peel and struck flint. The medium-bodied palate is packed with pure, zesty, expressive tropical and citrus layers plus tons of minerally accents and herbal sparks lifting the finish. It's irresistibly delicious now, but I'd love to see it with 2-3 years of bottle age too."


James Suckling - "Aromas of green apple, lemon curd, guava and fresh nettles. It’s medium-bodied and creamy with bright acidity. Refined mineral layers, too, with a focused finish. Solid core of fruit and a firm structure."
