Clearance priced at local supermarket, 63/29/8 blend of grapes from Napa, Lake and Solano Counties. Straw and herbal notes in nose. Straw, white peach, blood orange and lime flavors. Rounded body, restrained acidity with lemon-herb and mineral notes on finish. Worthy and on point for the variety. Winery notes “aged on lees” which explains some nuances in the mouth. 96.8/2.7/0.3 blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Semillon and Muscat

A good balance of fruit, acid and herbal elements. Went down like water (and looked like it too)

Jun 28th, 2020Hello Wednesday, the middle of the week and beginning the slide into the weekend. I stopped today and picked up a few wines to try. Tonight I have opened the 2018 Honig Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc, a blend of 92% Sauvignon Blanc, 7% Semillon and 1% Muscat.
The nose reveals beautiful notes of lime, grapefruit, white peach, nectarine, white flower and herbs
On the palate are nice citrus and stone fruits, lime, grapefruit, white peach, honeydew melon, mango and minerality.
This is a nice medium bodied wine with medium + acidity that moves stealthily into a clean, crisp long citrus finish. Well, the week is closing out fast and we are staring down the weekend. Finish the week strong and the weekend will bring a plethora of joy. Please be safe and work wisely. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂

A blend of 96% Sauvignon Blanc, 3% Semillon & 1% Muscat. Bright and crisp aromas of tropical and citrus fruits. On the palate flavors of peach and lime citrus with a floral character. Medium length ending with grapefruit citrus notes. Good value.

2017, more complex than I remembered and also expected. Nice mid palate.

Grassy nose, citrus, some slate. Saline. Bracing acidity with a med- body. Vegetal notes ramp up on the finish. Honeydew.

Somehow it’s a hard one for blind tasting. Not apparent pyrazine component while lots of tropical fruits. The acidity is fairly moderate. Kind of flabby.
