Hot summer nights summon Sauvignon Blanc into my glass. Accordingly, I keep a surplus of Turnbull’s flavor-rich Josephine on hand. Turnbull, in my humble opinion, consistently produces some of Napa Valley’s best Cabernets. However, their 100% Sauvignon Blanc should not be overlooked. An inviting aroma of stone fruit, hints of apple, and a touch of honeysuckle emanate from the glass, on the palate, a refreshing mix of lemon zest, pear and juicy peach coat your mouth. The Josephine has refined minerality with bright acidity. The wine showcases excellent length adding to the enjoyment of this vintage.
