2023 Krutz ‘Beckstoffer Melrose Vineyard’ Sauvignon Blanc

JD95 Honeyed flowers, ripe lemon, mint, and spicy wood notes all define the 2023 Sauvignon Blanc Beckstoffer Melrose Vineyard, a pure, layered, concentrated 100% Sauvignon Blanc brought up in 75% new oak. Medium to full-bodied and impeccably balanced on the palate, it will shine for at least 5-7 years, and my money is on longer.

Estate Notes: The outstanding 2023 vintage in Napa wasn’t just for reds. This unique old-vine Sauvignon Blanc from Rutherford showcases beautiful stone fruit aromas. Its unfiltered style, aged in 75% new French oak, creates a bright yet textured palate. Notes of honeydew, melon, and white peach weave seamlessly through this refreshing wine.
