TN: 2016 Mantanzas Creek Sauvignon Blanc (USA, California, Sonoma County)

2016 Mantanzas Creek Sauvignon Blanc – USA, California, Sonoma County (10/26/2018)
Day 1: Very spritzy wine on day 1. Grass, floral and a bit sweet. Not the most balanced effort. 85 points
Day 2: Does white wine improve on day 2. YES! Actually listening to YES Love will find a way. Much better. Nice stone fruits, grapefruit. subtle grass, flint and minerals. Short to medium chalky finish. This is very much like a solid Loire effort. 90 points
Day 3: Really nice again with similarities to day 2. Adds a little lemon rind on the finish. This is really good and needs some time. 90 points
Recommendation: I would drink these from 2020 to 2022. These are not pop and pour ready right now. (90 points)
