Fumé Blanc

2010 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc (90%), Carneros (10%)

The Grgich Hills Estate Fumé Blanc from the 2010 vintage is a delightful expression of Sauvignon Blanc, showcasing the vibrant character of Napa Valley. With its medium body, this wine presents a refreshing profile that is awash with bright acidity and mouthwatering fruit intensity. Expect luscious notes of citrus, especially grapefruit and lemon zest, balanced by subtle hints of grass and herbs that reflect its terroir. The wine is dry, allowing for a crisp finish, while the delicate texture gives way to a charmingly integrated and soft tannin presence. This Fumé Blanc is not only food-friendly but also an enjoyable companion for a variety of occasions, from casual meals to more refined gatherings.

It may be small, but when it comes to American wine regions, they do not come much bigger than Napa County. Home to the famous Napa Valley, which comprises most of its area, the Napa name has gained global recognition for its exceptional wines—especially its Bordeaux varieties. Most Napa County wineries choose to be more location-specific when labeling their wine, listing the name of sub-regions like Yountville, Los Carneros or Rutherford to capitalize on the name recognition. However, with such an abundance of high-quality grapes grown across the region, plenty of négociant winemakers blend fruit from different sub-regions. This gives Napa County wines excellent regional balance, taking advantage of different terroirs and mesoclimates.
