WX+ 'X9 Blind Cabernet Sauvignon Meetup (My House - Hanover Park, IL): This is a unique styling of SB. it is super green and grassy but definitely saw some oak. Under ripe apple and pear with some unique tropical elements. Can tell a few years are under its belt but the palate is very well integrated. Medium bodied and some floral elements coming through with some air. This is a SB that can age for years.

Honey and grapefruit on the nose. Complex, exotic fruits and citrus on the palate. Rounded, unctuous texture without sweetness or syrupy feel-- aging has done good things to this juice. Long finish. One of my very favorite white wines.

I served this at my 7/11/15 Low Country Boil. It had a rich, fragrant, complex and completely awesome bouquet of smoke, nectarine, mint and minerals. The palate was rich, elegant, powerful, dense and very extracted...flavors of nectarine, peach, vanilla cream, spice and minerals. 93+

apricot nose, rich sauvignon blanc, almost chardonnay-like. Hint of acidity. Easy drinker.

Tasted more like a Chardonnay than a Sauvignon Blanc. Citrus notes with a buttery finish.

Really like this. Not a traditional Sauv Blanc. Almost buttery

Citrus and spicy with nice oak. Full bodied with great extraction for a Sauvignon blanc. Nice elegance. One of the better Sauvignon Blancs of Cali.
