  I think that the tropical fruit on this is quite nice (guava, melon and meyer lemon) but there is an odd sour grapefruit element that confuses the flavors as the wine finishes. Nice SB, but not quite as great as I thought it was in the tasting room.

  Visiting Napa (Feb 13th - 17th); 2/13/2014-2/17/2014 (Napa, CA): 100% Stainless Steel Sauv Blanc
  
  Very nice tropical stone fruit, kiwi and some melon. Good mineral and acid in this as well without too much of the typical "grassy" note that you see in a lot of CA SB.

  The wine looks light gold colored. The legs are fast. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like guava, honeydew, apricot, peach, pear, peach blossom and honeysuckle. It tastes like lemon, cantaloupe, honeydew, melon and passion fruit. The body is light/medium. The wine has bright texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has medium acidity.
