Natalie's Score: 92/100

Love this fragrant, fresh and zesty Sauvignon Blanc-driven white wine with small amounts of Sauvignon Musqué, Sémillon and Muscat Canelli. Fresh and lively on the palate with melon, stone fruit and citrus flavours finishing with a flinty minerality.

Sauvignon Blanc food pairings: shellfish, chicken and sage skewers, fresh tomato and basil salad, pan-fried freshwater fish.

Reviews and Ratings

From the Napa Valley wine region, Stag's Leap Wine Cellars' Aveta 2017 Sauvignon Blanc is a fresh and zesty Sauvignon-Blanc driven white wine with white florals, stone fruit and fresh melon aromas on the nose. Dry, medium-plus-bodied with honeydew melon, stone fruit, fine herb, lemon zest, toasted nut flavours and a lingering mouth-watering finish. Pair with pasta Primavera or grilled chicken dishes. - Community Wine Reviews

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
