Groth Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley 2023 750ml


Critic Notes
92 Points Wine Enthusiast | With aromas and flavors of citrus pith, dried grasses and salted lime, this wine offers palate filling flavor with a pleasing balance of texture and mouthwatering length. Deftly integrated oak brings additional complexity in good balance. (2023).
90 Points James Suckling | Notes of sliced golden apples, candied lemons, citrus blossom and stone. Medium-bodied, sleek and polished with vivid acidity. Pretty and refreshing.
Winemaker Notes
Sunny lemon-yellow in color with bright aromas of honeydew melon, green apple, pear nectar and beeswax. Crisp and refreshing citrus and melon flavors lead to a long and juicy finish that leaves you craving another sip.
The fresh, bright acidity and expressive fruit of this Sauvignon Blanc will nicely complement most lighter preparations of seafood and vegetables. It also excels with a grilled chicken and pesto sandwich and, of course, sipped on its own right out of a chilled bottle. Winemaker Description.

2022 Vintage Reviews:
MaryAnn Worobiec writes: Effusive and intense, with a mouthwatering quality to the lingering notes of lemon blossoms, pomelo, fresh-cut Honeycrisp apple and candied ginger preserved in honey. Drink now. - Wine Spectator 92
Joe Czerwiński writes: Fermented and aged in a mix of French oak, concrete eggs and acacia barrels, Groth's 2022 Estate Sauvignon Blanc is a blend of 89% Sauvignon Blanc and 11% Sémillon. Scents of vanilla, passion fruit, guava, fig and melon rock the nose, while the full-bodied palate is generous yet nicely structured by the oak treatment, leading into a long, composed, elegant finish.
