2016 Scalon Cellars Sauvignon Blanc

Estate: Scalon Cellars

Region: Napa Valley, California, United States of America



Tasting Note:June 30, 2017

Light greenish yellow. Insanely young and refreshing. Layered nose with white stone fruits, green apples, and some tropical fruits. Crisp and bright acidity (7.5/10). Notes of apricot, lychee, more white stone fruits, a bit tangy and solid minerality in the long finish. Great structure and seems built to age a few years.


Inaugural release of this Sauvignon Blanc from Julien Fayard at Scalon Cellars, very excited to see what comes next.
