We opened it on Sunday for testing as we realized we had few bottles in cellar. Very enjoyable, but more of a daily SB. Agree with previous notes-- Nice aromas, opening up tropical and apricot. The minerals/crisp are even nicer than previously reported, but the finish is not that long and it is not a SB you would highlight/remember longer than the meal. I would say it is a super good BTG option if you get it, great reception/large audience SB. I would give it 89-90 and I would certainly drink it and enjoy (alot) but I would not put it as a featured SB. I would serve it to anyone who wants an intro to SB w/o too many complications

Winery tasting in the CVV caves. Sourced from Lake County and aged in neutral oak Classic SB profile with aromas and flavors of grass and tropical fruit, Nice crisp style, as I like in a Sauvignon Blanc. One of the better SB's tasted during my recent tour of Napa and Sonoma.
