Joseph Phelps Sauvignon Blanc Napa Estate 2024
A thrilling new Sauvignon Blanc of remarkable polish and pedigree, this wine opens with a gorgeous bouquet of lemon drop, grapefruit, passionfruit, lime zest, green apple, crushed slate, fresh grass, and a subtle lift of spearmint. On the palate, it is beautifully balanced, marrying tropical fruit intensity with crystalline minerality, creamy vanilla-kissed oak, and a silken, mouthcoating texture. The finish is long, pure, elegant, and brilliantly refreshing, with lemon, green apple, grapefruit zest, and a refined savory edge lingering with real class. Classic in proportion and utterly delicious, this is a Sauvignon Blanc of serious distinction.
