I always love wines that exude value. The Starmont brand began back 25 years ago and has grown in a great value brand out of Napa. Winemaker Winemaker, Jeff Crawford crafts these wines with minimal oak intervention. Grapes are sourced from select sites including Monterey, Santa Barbara, Sonoma and Napa counties.
I really enjoyed these values. Check out the 2024 Starmont Sauvignon Blanc (OB, 90) which is fresh and neatly textured stuff. Learn more at https://www.starmontwines.com and here are my reviews of the Starmont wines.
