Realm Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc The Bard Riverbound Edition 2024

$5999

Realm is best known as one of Napa's serious cult Cabernet houses, so it says something that they put this much care into a Sauvignon Blanc. The Bard is their white program, and the Riverbound Edition is a special bottling drawn from Tom Gamble's Riverbound vineyard, a site tucked between the Napa River and Conn Creek where fog lingers later into the morning than on neighboring parcels. The 2024 was fermented and aged in a mix of neutral foudre, concrete egg, and stainless steel — choices designed to add texture without dressing up the fruit. The result is a serious, full-bodied white with the kind of pedigree and ambition you'd expect from a label that usually trades in Beckstoffer Cabernet.

Crab cakes, grilled halibut, goat cheese salads, lemon chicken, ceviche, herbed pasta with shrimp.

Tasting Profile

Lush and three-dimensional. Lemon, lime zest, white peach, kiwi, and ripe tropical fruit, with a creamy mid-palate and just enough acidity to keep it lifted.
