The 2015 Rombauer Sauvignon Blanc is one of the best of its kind at this price point. Coming from the earliest harvest in history, this wine was 90% fermented in stainless steel, while the rest was fermented in neutral French oak for three months and then placed back in steel. This wine opens with aromas of cut grass, jalepeno, unripe pear and Granny Smith apple. There are flavors of Gala apple, Japanese pear, gooseberry, starfruit, and lemon zest that sits alongside bright acidity. Gorgeous balance to this expressive Sav Blanc. This is absolutely perfect for a hot summer day. (Best 2016-2021) - April, 2016 (OB)
