2024 Krutz Sauvignon Blanc 'Beckstoffer Melrose Vineyard'
Tasting Notes
This distinctive old-vine Sauvignon Blanc from Rutherford captures the varietal character and regional pedigree, with expressive stone fruit aromatics. Matured in 75% new French oak, it delivers both vibrancy and depth. Layers of honeydew, ripe melon, and white peach glide across a bright, textured palate, culminating in a beautifully refreshed and balanced finish.Vineyard Notes
