2020 Blue Chip Cellars Sauvignon Blanc SVB

Russian River Valley more

3/28/2022 - Stemzware wrote: NR

You can find brilliant Sauvignon Blanc in several regions around the globe—France’s Loire Valley (its spiritual home), New Zealand’s Marlborough (the modern star) and, of course, California. For the Golden State’s finest Sauvignon, savvy fans head to Sonoma County’s premium Russian River Valley.

What makes the Russian River Valley such a great Sauvignon spot? It enjoys a cool climate, thanks to the nearby Pacific Ocean and the cooling breezes that drift along the Russian River. These factors prevent the Sauvignon Blanc grapes from over-ripening and help lock in the variety’s trademark zip and zing. Add in a little help from Mother Nature (2020 was yet another solid vintage for California), and you’ve got the perfect recipe for world-class Sauvignon Blanc—it even won the bronze at the San Francisco International Wine Competition.

SVB might be short in name, but it’s not at all short on flavor. Look forward to expressive elderflower notes, supported by vibrant guava and citrus fruits. Elegant and fresh, it’s an invigorating aperitif and equally tasty with seafood, salads or soft cheeses.

Sauvignon Blanc is one of our most in-demand whites, so you’ll want to act fast to secure your share of this new exclusive.

Good everyday cab. This was in a great place age-wise in our view. Decanted for maybe an hour? Much more pleasant than most at this price point.

Drink up. I do not think this wine will get any better and it is now at its peak. This is a good every day cab. Nice legs, good aroma and fruit forward. The tannins are mild to moderate, but well integrated.

Very aromatic and moderate legs. Definitely needs to open up, but the flavors are well balanced once opened. The finish is underwhelming. The cherry and blackberries are pronounced. I also pick up some licorice and spice.

Smooth well balanced merlot. Somewhat young tasting, but also dark berry and cherry.

Strong nose with berry notes. Easy drinking and well balanced. Not much body yet delicious. I'm sure this would complement lamb and duck dishes well.

Drank this with some Indian food - it was very smooth out of the bottle. Had a bit of licorice - very nice finish - spicy - stone fruits
The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like red currant and black currant (cassis). It tastes like pomegranate, red currant and black currant (cassis). The body is light/medium. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes medium. The wine has low acidity. This wine gets better through the evening...

Evidently not a serious player in the CT world. It's another WSJ offering. Representative of the region, a decent rendering of pinot noir without exceptional qualities: accessible dark fruit without the sauvage quality one hopes for.
