The 2020 Kelley & Young Sauvignon Blanc—which spent about a month in neutral French oak—is crisp and refreshing, and perfect on a warm afternoon.
On the nose, it exhibits refreshing scents of Meyer lemon zest, honeysuckle, and orange blossom. The medium palate features a dry but delicate acidity and minerality, with bright and juicy flavors including white grapefruit, lychee, and lemon curd.
It pairs well with dry-aged cheeses, Marcona almonds, oysters, and even popcorn. Frankly, we like it with anything cheesy and salty. Order a few bottles today!
