July 22, 2012 - Delicious at Farm and Fisherman. Stone fruit notes and feel. Finish of apricot pits or grapefruit -- something nicely bitter.

September 30, 2011 - The color is medium gold. Big body and viscosity, layers of beautiful citrus and tropical fruit, honey, and a light Sambuca sweetness. Blind, I would have described this as a cross between Viognier and Chenin Blanc or some Italian varietal, but not a SB! Even has some malo character, if you like that sort of thing. Will likely get more soon 5+11+18+8 = 92

July 16, 2011 - Been waiting for the right time, and meal, to try this one. This at least double the price I would normally go for a Sauvignon Blanc so I was expecting something nice. It did not disappoint! Pretty nose of pear, light citrus and cut flowers. A fine mineral component dominated the palate along with honey and a little citrus. The bottom of the bottle came too quickly.
