Gemstone Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc Facets 2024 MENU a light hand with oakFacets is the exploration label from Yountville's Gemstone Vineyard, where winemaker Julien Fayard (ex Lafite, ex Smith Haut Lafitte) sources fruit from outside the estate to show off other corners of Napa. The Sauvignon Blanc leans bright and crunchy rather than tropical, which is exactly what we want from California Sauvignon. Pour it cold and pour it often.
