This is a fine, down-the-middle California expression of Sauvignon Blanc, showing zippy melon and Meyer lemon fruit offset by stony minerality. Lively acidity rounded off by some neutral oak, moderate grass tones and a long mouthwatering finish knit the package together. Serve this with just about anything in the salad or seafood range, or enjoy it as a classy cocktail.
