2022 Charles Krug Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc
#25-2023


This is the perfect time of the year for grilled salmon and chilled white wine.  In this case, the salmon was steelhead, and the wine was Charles Krug Sauvignon Blanc.  If you like the kiss of grapefruit in your Sauvignon Blanc, then this would be a good choice for you.

In addition to grapefruit, there is the presence of lime with a little lemon zest, and the unusual background note of not-quite-ripe plum, which adds a good backbone to the finish, which lingers until the next sip.  The alcohol content is 12.8% and Norm's score is 88.

Hit the backyard and pair up some "Grilled and Chilled" for yourself!

score: 88
price : $15 - $20
