Spottswoode Sauvignon Blanc 2022

The iconic Napa producer fermented this Sauvignon Blanc in French oak, small stainless steel barrels, clay amphora, and ceramic and concrete cuves. Intense sweet peach aromas leap forth, followed by tarragon, sea foam and lemon zest notes. The palate is fresh with pronounced citrus flavours, followed by ripe apricot and briny minerality. Drinking window: 2023-2029. Score – 93. (Clive Pursehouse, decanter.com, May 4, 2023)
