Region- North Coast, California

Winery Review- The 2022 Duckhorn Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc delivers excellence from start to finish. TASTING NOTES: This wine shines with aromas and flavors of dried herbs, earthy aromas, and tart citrus. Pair it with a dozen raw oysters topped with freshly squeezed Meyer lemon. (Tasted: May 20, 2023, San Francisco, CA) - Wilfred Wong of wine.com


Wine Folly- Gooseberry, Honeydew, Grapefruit, White Peach, Passionfruit. "Sauvignon Blanc is a wonderful pairing partner with herb-driven sauce, salty cheeses, light meats, and last but not least, asian food." (page 166)


My Review- The Duckhorn Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc is a crisp and refreshing wine. Its aroma greets you with lively notes of citrus, grapefruit, and tropical fruits. The flavors I picked up on this wine were passion fruit, lemon zest, and a hint of fresh herbs. I could see this wine pairing very well with any kind of seafood.

I tasted this wine on its own.
