Lot 217
2009 Russian River Valley Sauvignon Blanc
Beautiful aromatics and a rich yet zingy mid-palate.
Pale straw color with tints of green. Aromas of citrus-fruit, melon and freshly cut grass dominate the nose. Lively acidity up-front and subtle vanilla complement the bright aromas. With a great mouth feel and incredible clarity, this wine finishes light, crisp, and clean.
Style: Full, Bold

Sauvignon Blanc truly thrives in a region like the Russian River Valley, where warm days play with cold evenings and foggy mornings to produce great cool climate varietals. Acidity is such an integral part of any wine especially Sauvignon Blanc. This vineyard is located in an ideal part of the Russian River Valley, providing a dynamical climate for beautiful acidity in this varietal. This wine is a refreshing thirst quencher and comparable to Sauv Blancs in the $15 range. Buy it from CHWine @ $11 and you've got a heckuva deal.
