Grgich Hills Sauvignon Fume Blanc 750ml

Grgich Hills Estate's Fumé Blanc is a barrel-aged expression of Sauvignon Blanc from Napa Valley, made using techniques the winery's founder, Mike Grgich, helped popularize in California. Aging in French oak gives it more richness and texture than a typical stainless-steel Sauvignon Blanc, while still keeping the grape's signature citrus and tropical fruit character intact. Expect vibrant acidity balanced against a rounder, slightly creamy mouthfeel from the oak. It's a more food-friendly, complex style than most Sauvignon Blancs on the market.

How to drink Grgich Hills Fumé Blanc

Serve chilled, but not ice-cold — the oak-driven richness shows better a few degrees warmer than a typical Sauvignon Blanc. Pairs well with shellfish, roast chicken, or dishes with a citrus or herb component.
