    March 17, 2024 - Very serious Sauvignon Blanc, probably one of the most serious I’ve tasted and unsurprisingly coming from one of the most serious makers in the world. Very ripe and some tertiary development already. Lemon curd, pineapple, honey, finishing off really long and salty with excellent concentration. Didn’t know they make it with 100% Sauv Blanc!

    August 26, 2023 - Another delightful bottle. A touch more refined than the prior bottle, more delicate, but a still long finish.

    May 30, 2023 - This struck me as a more muscular wine more characteristic of a well-made California SB. Tropical fruits and gardenias burst from the glass, with a palate that followed directly from the nose. At this price point, it's hard ot call it a "summer sipper", but it was a delightful wine to enjoy during these early days of summer.

    March 23, 2023 - Medium expressive mature nose displaying neutral yellow fruit, lemon curd, apple, lanoline, honeysuckle, honey, petrol, sweet spices and mineral. Excellent concentration, generous neutral yellow fruit, rich yet cool and steely, bright acidity, strong mineral, and a medium to long ripe neutral yellow fruit driven finish with a hint of petrol and lanoline at the end. Drinking nicely.

    September 23, 2022 - Honey comb with dense palate yet refreshing. Aromas develop sweet flower after a while. A lovely drink.
