Freemark Abbey Napa Valley 2017 Sauvignon Blanc, $19.99-$22.99, 88 points, poured a medium brass color clearing two thirds of the way toward the glass edge.
Opening sniffs were soft and unremarkable unripe cantaloupe, citrus, and a furtive mint note, but with air, grass aromas developed.
Light-bodied with good acidity carried intensifying flavors of grass and sweet hay nuanced with red dragon fruit.
Finished well with a candied ginger note and a nicely balanced 13.8% alcohol.
Paired perfectly with my Atlantic salmon cakes.
