August 18, 2023 - Wow!
I knew I would like this, but wow!
Light lemon flesh in color.
Fresh and clean nose. Fruit aroma.
Juicy, acidic, stone fruit.
I love this wine. So well out together. Nicely done. Case worthy wine that will improve with cellar time. -

June 5, 2022 - Not a premium price but a premium drink. Semillon dominant, it is not full of tropical fruits of sauvignon blanc, rather, it has grapefruit, lime, candied orange peel and a hint of lychee.
It is a light to medium wine that has lovely structure, acidity and mouth filling shape. Just approaching its drinking window now, it is a refined and serious wine even though it is not a premium wine - great value.
Drink now to 5+ years.1 person found this helpful Comment -

March 22, 2022 - Honeysuckle, citrus, apricot. Enticing and well made. But the finish is a little short.

March 8, 2021 - Tasting REAL GOOD at the moment! Showing powerful scents of mangos, guavas, honey, citrus flowers and apricot with all of those flavors coming through as well perked up with juicy acidity. We were all in consensus that this wine could pass as a dry Sauternes. For the price, it’s really hard to find a white Bordeaux this good. Although it’s hard for me to see this gaining anything from additional aging- but then again, I wouldn’t blame anyone if they felt it has the ability to do so.
