Sauvignon Blanc

2016 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc

The Girard Sauvignon Blanc from the esteemed Napa Valley is a delightful expression of this beloved varietal, showcasing a vibrant and refreshing personality. Its pale straw color invites you into a world bursting with aromas of zesty citrus, ripe melon, and a hint of herbal undertones, all of which tantalize the senses. On the palate, this wine is medium-bodied with a crisp acidity that ignites a mouthwatering experience, making it incredibly food-friendly and perfect for warm-weather gatherings. The fruit intensity is prominent, delivering bright flavors of grapefruit and green apple, balanced by subtle notes of passion fruit. With its dry finish, this Sauvignon Blanc embodies the essence of California's sunshine, offering a beautifully crafted example of Napa Valley winemaking at its finest.

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.
