A creamy-textured sauvignon blanc with sliced apple, lime and other citrus fruit. Medium to full body. Tangy finish. Need oysters with this! Drink now.

The 2020 Sauvignon Blanc is made in a decidedly fume style, with notes of struck flint, smoky overtones and grassy-herbal elements, but also ripe fig and melon flavors. Aged in a mix of new (17%) and used French oak (53%), plus stainless steel (30%), it's medium ... read more

The 2020 Sauvignon Blanc is made in a decidedly fume style, with notes of struck flint, smoky overtones and grassy-herbal elements, but also ripe fig and melon flavors. Aged in a mix of new (17%) and used French oak (53%), plus stainless steel (30%), it's medium to full-bodied, plump and silky in texture on the long finish. Best After 2022
Wine Spectator 90
Intense and vibrant, with mouthwatering fresh ginger, pomelo and lemon flavors. Reveals an appealing note of matchstick and minerality on the finish.
This third vintage of Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc is lovely and bright, offering the varietys classic citrus fruit characteristics with notes of Meyer lemon and white blossoms. A lean backbone of racy acidity supported by a steely minerality adds to the wines crispness and complexity. On the palate, stone fruit notes of white peach, young plum, grapefruit and zesty lime peel are interwoven with hints of white jasmine and elderflower, as well as spicier ginger and white pepper notes, adding layers and depth to the round, soft texture, leading to a lengthy mouthwatering finish. Elegant and savory, this Sauvignon Blanc is a beautiful expression of Napa Valley fruit, and the perfect thirst-quencher when dining al fresco, or enjoying on its own.
ON THE WATERSHED OF THE STAGS LEAP PALISADES, ONE OF CALIFORNIA'S EARLIEST WINE ESTATES...
On one of California's earliest wine estates, a unique terroir and ideal microclimate support a classical standard of viticulture, land use, and winemaking that is as relevant today as it was over a century ago.
An intimate valley within the greater Napa Valley, Stags' Leap is a place of natural beauty, storied buildings and gardens, a lively history, and a reputation for elegant wines showing finesse and intensity.
Winemaking is traditional here, focused on a pure expression of the land. We didn't invent winemaking; we just work hard at it. Everything is well-informed by experience and classic winemaking technique, but nothing is rote or formulaic. Decisions are made based on the fruit itself, and the conditions of each and every harvest. Our consistent quality of wines comes from this balancing act. Our wines are well made. They're delicious, showing finesse and integrity.
