I've become picky about Sauvignon Blanc since I moved to the Napa Valley. Many Napa Valley Sauvignon Blancs are produced like Chardonnay and it ends up being overripe and over-oaked. I'm so happy that the 2013 Coquerel Wines Sauvignon Blanc is not. Sure, it has some creaminess from oak aging, but right out of the gate springs vibrant acidity and a burst of bright, tart citrus taking the lead. This is fantastic. ($32, sample)

Oaked SB. Full-bodied for the varietal. Slight citrus and tartness.
