Cliff Lede Sauvignon Blanc

Cliff Lede’s 2018 Sauvignon Blanc is the perfect blend of freshness, elegance and nuance. A blend of 85% Sauvignon Blanc, 12% Semillon and a splash of Sauvignon Vert, this is not the one-dimensional Sauv Blanc that we’ve all regretted ordering by the glass. Most of the blend comes from three vineyard sources in Napa Valley, the majority of which well-established, with old vines contributing complexity to the finished wine. So if you’re looking for a Sauvignon Blanc that offers character without sacrificing deliciousness, look no further.
