Aromas of fresh citrus, pineapple and gooseberry permeate along with a delicate brightness in color. Ripe textures follow on the palate, unfolding with perfected pineapple and hints of pear. Rich in mouthfeel, the fresh fruit notes finish with consistent, fresh acidity. Brilliant expression of Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc at its peak.
