Spottswoode Estate Vineyard & Winery, Napa County / Sonoma County (California) Sauvignon Blanc 2023

Jul 9, 2024

By Rich Cook

 Another winner in a long line of California’s best renditions of the variety.  This is without fail so layered, complex and beautiful, showing virtually every aspect possible with the variety thanks to separate lots in stainless steel barrels and tanks, French oak, clay amphora, ceramic and concrete egg aging before blending.  Expect lively melon, citrus, grass and stony minerality, with light hints of apple and lime zest.  You simply can’t go wrong with Spottswoode.  Contains 7% Semillon.
