August 25, 2017 - A beautiful light gold color. The nose has scents of candied grapefruit, passion fruit, and honey. The mouth feel is light with decent acidity. Flavors of dried grapefruit, wet stone and honey. Not a big finish. This wine is at peak and on the back end of peak. It has held up well for being ten years old! Very nice with avocado, sun dried tomatoes and crab or langoustine with grapefruit reduction. Score 89

February 20, 2011 - This wine is very fruity, but has well balanced acidity. The nose is of fresh honeydew melons (probably due to the semillon) and has a touch of citrus and grass, which is more typical of sauvingon blancs. The wine was a beautiful and rich straw color, not too dark. I just missed a little zippiness in the structure of the wine, which is why I did not rate the wine a 90. Overall, a great wine to enjoy with food or by itself.

June 25, 2010 - Wine Blogger's Conference 2010 - White Wine Live Blogging (Wine Blogger's Conference, Walla Walla, Washington): The nose here strikes me immediately as fresh white cake cupcakes with frosting, and a bit of pineapple baked inside. The texture is rich and soft, with peach and flavors showing well on the mid to late palate. The acidity works nicely across the full experience, and it takes over oat the end. 88+
