title: Chalk Hill 1999 Sauvignon Blanc (Chalk Hill)
description: This is one big wine; and in our opinion it's largely overdone. When butter and burnt toast dominate fruit, it's not going to be perceived as being varietally correct, and most tasters will probably struggle to peg it as SB. From a flavor perspective, it's chock full of banana, baked apples and wood. The finish is resinous and thick. Call it a ripe case of more being less.
