Grgich Hills Fume Blanc Napa Valley 2023 (750ml)
Product price
Description
Grgich Hills Estate's Fume Blanc from Napa Valley is a Sauvignon Blanc made from organically grown grapes and aged in a mix of oak barrels and foudres. The 2022 vintage shows the producer's commitment to a textured, slightly structured approach to the varietal, moving beyond the bright, fruit-forward style Sauvignon Blanc is known for.
On the nose, you'll find wet stone, sliced peach, and fresh flowers. The palate is medium- to full-bodied with citrus acidity and stone fruit, but there's also a mineral edge and subtle phenolic tension that adds grip. The finish carries refreshing tannins that make this a natural food wine. It's approachable now, though the structure suggests it will age gracefully.
