One of the best value Sauvignon Blancs you can find. I got it for $10 and it is delicious. Like a Napa Sauvignon Blanc. Softer and less acidic than the NZ SB's. I get nice floral and melon on the palate. If you can find it, buy it. I just grabbed the last 3 at one of the wine stores I buy from. This fruit is usually sold to be put in some of the top SB's in Napa (according to a wine publication). In 2009, there were several issues that left the owners with lots of extra fruit. They decided to make this wine. Supposedly, the contracts for the fruit are back in place and the wines these grapes are used for will be more like $25. If you can find it, I think you will love it.

Citrus, wet stone, nice acidity. Prototypical Napa Sauv Blanc.
