Refined Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc with mineral precision and herbaceous elegance. Versatile pairing for fine seafood and cheese.
This 2017 Sauvignon Blanc from Duckhorn Vineyard's secondary label demonstrates the producer's refined approach to the variety within Napa Valley's distinctive terroir. The wine captures the mineral precision and herbaceous character typical of quality American Sauvignon Blanc, with balanced acidity and measured alcohol at 13.5 percent affording elegant structure rather than intensity. Notes of citrus, white stone fruit, and subtle green notes reflect careful fruit selection and restrained vinification, creating a composed expression suitable for extended cellaring over the near term. Pair this wine with grilled fish, creamy goat cheese preparations, or delicate shellfish dishes that honour its measured complexity.
