Inglenook 2022 Sauvignon Blanc Napa Valley
The 2022 Inglenook Sauvignon Blanc is a bright, expressive white that balances energetic citrus fruit and herbal tension with a textural richness derived from gentle oak influence. It shows how Napa Valley can produce Sauvignon Blancs that are both vibrant and layered—crisp and refreshing on the first sip, yet with enough structure to hold interest.
