Cuvaison, Los Carneros – Napa Valley (California) Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Oct 4, 2022

By Rebecca Murphy

 This lovely Sauvignon Blanc with its lightly floral, grapefruit zest citrusy aromas has a little secret.  The 100 percent Sauvignon Blanc grapes grown in California’s cool Carneros region include the Musqué clone which contributes those enticing floral aromas.  Winemaker Steven Rogstad fermented and aged the wine for six months in stainless steel tanks to preserve and highlight the bright intense citrus flavors perfectly balanced with crisp, citrusy acidity.  Enjoy it with a chilled gazpacho soup or grilled shrimp.
