Today’s Mario Bazan Cellars 2012 Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc is like liquid summertime. Creamy, silky, delicious summertime.

This wine is wonderfully balanced, both in terms of its flavor profile and its feel on the palate. Fresh fruit harmonizes with lime leaf and caramel. As for feel, the wine starts out fresh & silky and then gains a slight grippiness as the more complex flavors settle onto the palate.

We love this wine for its easy complexity, by which we mean this is a wine that is at once fresh and easy drinking - without being flaccid or boring.

Very highly recommended.
