Expert Reviews - Vintage 2024
The Wine Advocate 92 Points | A blend of 89% Sauvignon Blanc and 11% Sémillon, Groth's 2024 Estate Sauvignon Blanc was fermented in a mix of neutral oak barrels and second-fill acacia wood, with the Sémillon going into concrete egg. The result is a wine characterized by bold scents of honeyed fig and melon, with just a hint of pencil shavings. It's medium- to full-bodied, expansive, generous and even rich across the mid-palate, then tightens up nicely on the finish, ending clean and lemony.
James Suckling 90 Points | This has citrusy, slightly grassy character with apples, lemon rind, spicy herbs and crushed stones on the nose. Medium-bodied, textured and juicy, it finishes creamy and sleek.
Winemaker Description
The 2024 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc has a beautiful pale straw color. On the nose, it bursts with fresh-cut cantaloupe, zesty lime, ripe papaya, a hint of candied lemon, and a touch of white pepper. The palate offers refreshing lemon-lime and citrus oil notes, giving it a smooth, lively character. It has a crisp, clean finish with just the right amount of bright acidity and a lovely waxy feel.

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.
Blend: 89% Sauvignon Blanc, 11% Semillon

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.
