Ram's Gate Sauvignon Blanc 2021 Review

The Carneros AVA, nested into the larger Napa Valley AVA and straddling some of Sonoma, is one of the closest wine districts to San Pablo Bay. This means it’s the coolest region in Napa and a great place to grow Sauvignon Blanc. With warm days and cool nights, Joe Nielsen and his team coax out a true cool-climate wine. It has a lean, mineral-driven nose and palate with a medium fruit depth. The vibrant natural acidity cuts through that depth to lift the wine on your palate. This is such a sound wine.
