Clif Family Winery Rte Blanc 2018 Review
A nice, refreshing Sauvignon Blanc with prominent notes of nectarines and tropical fruits. There is a hint of bell pepper as it opens a bit, along with a waft of pear. The palate has medium acidity, showing a mineral-driven quality with wet flint stone. It’s only available from the website, but is a great example of how this grape can shine in Cali.
