Beautiful blend of Semillion and Sauvignon Blanc (65/35) with tropical/tree fruit nose (apricot, peach, waxy, ripe to overripe pineapple) was fermented in barrel for 8 months, incredibly creamy, full

Outstanding! Easily 99.9 points on Jenny scale. Savory, smooth, mysterious, black cherries all the way. Satin tannin, balanced.

Like drinking ripe raspberry jam!

Incredibly youthful, dark red cherry, cocoa, a bit of smokiness (cigar ash) structure still in place, velvet tannin, long finish

I call this a "no spitter" with a rich mouthfeel, cranberry, pomegranate, orange zest, fig jam, I loved it. Balanced in every way

Streamlined, sharp, elevated acid, nice mix of red/black fruit on nose

Puts the F in FUNKY. Yuck. Consensus among my peers was blue cheese on nose, nobody could get past it. Declining fruit and acid, flabby.

Black pepper, smokey, intense, dark fruits with a lot of plum skin. Awesome.

Ridiculous. Best SB I have ever had. They blended in Viognier and Semillion. Incredibly round, smooth. Vibrant peach, vanilla (was aged in some oak) honey, pineapple, cantelope.

decent tannin, not as expressive fruit-wise, sour blackcherry dominates nose, so-so wine, was probably in its prime 5-8 yrs ago

all horse saddle, old leather on nose but absolutely crazy good on palate, incredibly smooth,velvet-like tannins with a perfectly matching acidity, more earth than fruit overall

strong gasoline component on nose mixed with buttered popcorn (strangely intriguing, had to keep going back) a lot of vanilla/oak still around but the fruit is muted and fading

caramel-ish, golden honey, overripe pineapple, refreshing,lovely still

seriously awesome, killer nose of baked pear, baked lemon, lees, toasted brioche, butter, appears to be an indestructible sparkler, obviously bubbles long gone but still balanced with med+ acid

a bit watery, most of fruit on nose is gone, cedar/musty elements remain, drinkable but on its way out
