($22, Vintus Wines): Dog Point’s Sauvignon Blanc has been a favorite of mine since Fred Ek, owner of Ex-Cellars, their importer at the time, introduced me to it a couple of decades ago. Dog Point, still family owned, made a delightful one in 2021. Good weight and depth balance its zingy and minerally edginess. Its pleasantly piercing bite awakens the palate without being aggressive. A long citrus finish enhances and reinforces its vibrancy.
