Wine Recommendation

St. Supéry Vineyards

2007 Virtu
(Napa Valley)



Another age-worthy Sauvignon Blanc-Semillon blend, but with a bit more depth at this stage. White peach aroma with hints of French oak and creamy finish. One of the last wines made by wine maker Michael Beaulac before he left to head up the program at Pine Ridge.

The Reviewer

Dan Berger

Dan Berger has been reviewing wine for 30 years, always seeking character related to varietal type and regional identity. He has never used numbers to rank wine and doesn’t plan to start any time soon. He believes that weight and concentration aren’t the only worthy aspects of wine and is especially smitten by cool-climate and food-friendly wines that offer distinctiveness.
