2018 John Anthony Carneros Sauvignon Blanc
Tasting Notes:
"Bright tropical fruit, citrus and lemongrass aromas. This vintage has more Sancerre-like qualities than we have produced in previous years. Kaffir lime and passionfruit flavors are focused and well supported by fresh almond and sweet herbs. The wine has a lean structure, mineral undertones and energetic acidity that make it a refreshing spring offering."
