Silverado Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc Block Blend

Not grapefruity, but not overly grassy either. A nice balance. Great drinker

Oaky, trended towards a grassy flavor. It was smooth, but not one I would buy again because I prefer the more fruit tropical or fruit forward Sauvignon Blanc.

PnP. Clear, med straw color. This drank way better than the last bottle. After 30 minutes glass time, a perfect everyday porch pounder. Nice, rounded SB flavor with no rough edges and clean, fruity, bright tastes. Nothing off. $25

PnP, chilled. Clear, light/med straw color. I was unimpressed. It drank rough, edgy and green. Hopefully and off bottle. $25

Color - Straw yellow with hint of green Nose - Light Citrus with Peach and Nectarine tropical fruits Palate - Light citrus, Gooseberry, tropical fruits, would have preferred a bit more boldness on the finish.

Solid Sauvignon blanc with citrusy notes. A little burn from the 14.2% alcohol lowers the score but overall a nice porch sipper.

My wife loves this wine. I let her drink it while I drink my reds.

Pale golden yellow in color. Forward, fragrant & attractive nose of fresh citrus fruits of lemons/limes, figs & grapefruit with overtones of floral & lemongrass, stony & minerals. Light bodied with a good concentration of well balanced & smooth textured, zesty fruit flavors of lemons/limes, green apples & grapefruit with lemongrass, stony/earthy & minerals. Lingering dry finish. Drinks quite well at present and may develop with an additional year of aging.
