Napa Valley (AVA)

Titus Brothers Shooting Blancs
First Time Out

Titus brothers no longer red all over as they weigh in with their own Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc.

DropCap Some of the best Sauvignon Blanc in the country, if not in the world, as I’ve contended for a long while, has been coming out of the Napa Valley; but not many know about it, or care. More’s the pity. If grown in the right places - read: Not too hot, nor too cold - Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc often can reach the perfect balance. Not too herbaceous (such as can often be the case with New Zealand SBs), or too lean (as with periodic SBs from Bordeaux or Sancerre).
