Lail Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc Georgia 2019

WA94: One of my favorite Sauvignon Blancs from Napa, Lail's 2019 Georgia Sauvignon Blanc is lightly toasty on the nose, with scents of struck flint, grapefruit and tangerine. It's a blend of fruit from Yountville (70%) and Coombsville (30%), barrel fermented in 70% new French oak, and the result is medium to full-bodied, silky, elegant and long. With the malolactic fermentation blocked, it remains refreshing and mouthwatering despite its obvious richness.
