The Napa Valley White blend showcases Matthiasson's philosophy of combining familiar and alternative varieties. This blend—48% Sauvignon Blanc, 26% Ribolla Gialla, 24% Semillon, 2% Tocai Friulano—represents a Friuli-inspired approach: Sauvignon Blanc providing clean, fresh citrus and tropical character; Ribolla Gialla adding seashell minerality, nuttiness, and structure; Semillon contributing viscosity and weight; and Tocai Friulano providing spicy, aromatic notes.

The 2014 blend represents a moment in California winemaking when alternative blends were becoming more common. At 12 years old, the wine shows how well-integrated blends age: the individual components have melded into something harmonious and complex. This is food-friendly but never boring, complex but never overwrought. The balance between fresh acidity and textural richness makes this a wine for adventurous dinners—seafood, lighter preparations, or vegetable-forward plates. The Friuli inspiration shows in the wine's structure and minerality; the California terroir shows in the ripeness and generosity. A beautiful expression of Matthiasson's philosophy: respect for traditional winemaking combined with American fruit character.

Wine Spectator

90 points

"Crisp, expressive and elegant, this is an intriguing blend, with smoke, floral and fresh herb accents, and a core of crisp, vivid Meyer lemon, ruby grapefruit and white pepper flavors. Sauvignon Blanc, Ribolla Gialla, Sémillon and Tocai Friulano."

Wine Enthusiast

92 points

"Crisp, refreshing and uniquely spicy and mineral-driven, this blends 50% Sauvignon blanc, 25% Ribolla Gialla, 20% Sémillon and 5% Tocai Friulano—all unusual varieties in the Napa Valley. Light, bright and fleshy, it tastes of lemon, mango and the sea." —Virginie Boone

Tasting Profile

Citrus, seashell minerality, and spice with textural richness. Medium-bodied, complex, with excellent acidity providing focus. The blend integrates beautifully—individual components harmoniously combined into a wine greater than its parts—with fruit, minerality, and texture all contributing equally.
