March 24, 2010 - (14.2%) 70% Semillon/30% Sauvignon Blanc. Sauv-ish and sour/tart on the nose. This one is floral on the palate with a crisp mineral, acidic backbone which allows just a hint of honeydew to emerge. The overall mouth feel is rich and full. A well balanced effort throughout this is unique and enjoyable.

February 2, 2010 - A few bargain whites for spring, from Washington: Has a bit more balanced nose than the 07, with a bit less earth. More tart acidity, less honeyed, a bit fresher, with more sauvignon blanc character than the 07. 86-88
