Dry Creek Vineyard Fume Blanc 2017

Fumé Blanc is a beautiful wine that emanates the classic Dry Creek Vineyard "house" style of Sauvignon Blanc. At first swirl, aromatics of Meyer lemon, grapefruit, pineapple, and lemongrass leap forward from the glass with nuances of freshly cut grass and cucumber. On the palate, the wine is bright and refreshing with flavors of lemon, passionfruit, grapefruit, and lemongrass with underlying minerality. This wine is mouthwatering and delicious with lovely intensity and a clean, pure finish.

This remains one of the best wine values on the planet: a Loire-style, stainless-steel fermented beauty that the winery has been making for 46 years. Guava, peach and apricot surround buzzy acidity in a crowd-pleasing quaff of undeniable quality and freshness.
