Cakebread Cellars Reviews: 2000 Sauvignon Blanc

2000 Sauvignon Blanc
Napa Valley


Earthy, intense, polished and complex, with well-defined floral, apple and fig flavors that are firm, rich and concentrated. Finish sails on.
Wine Spectator gave this wine a score of 88 points.


Medium-light yellow; pleasant, forward, earthy, grassy, grapefruit aroma with hints of fig and vanilla; medium-full to full body; forward, rounded, herbal, grapefruit and ripe peach flavors with a touch of vanilla.
