Lafond Family Santa Barbara Winery Sauvignon Blanc 2017 Review
An earthy Savvy B with notes of wet rock, lemon and heady floral hawthorn on the nose. With a swirl a little bit of basil pops up. The palate is heady as well with a nice, comfy depth and soft well-integrated acidity. At $15 this is a Savvy B that you might be coming back to.
