Chalk Hill 2012 Estate Sauvignon Blanc (Chalk Hill)

Country: US / California
Variety: Sauvignon Blanc
Winery: Chalk Hill / Estate

Nicely dry and tart in acidity, this pretty wine is fine to drink now. Flavors recall citrus fruits with richer notes of papayas, along with gooseberries and green mint from cool-climate grapes. Made without the malolactic fermentation, the wine was coopered in 55% French oak.
