June 29, 2014 - PnP this is very tasty. Gooseberry and grapefruit with a hint of mango. Great acid, nice minerality, and still reasonably fresh. Drink up within the next year or so. Not sure how this one would improve.
June 19, 2014 - Light and crisp, however the fruit and floral notes are fading fast now. Best to drink it down before it goes flat.
March 9, 2014 - Still drinking well, see my previous notes for details on the wine.
December 1, 2013 - Delicious, the nose and bouquet have citrus and mellow other tones that are delightful to sniff. On the palate I found grapefruit, lightly, with other citrus notes, maybe some other berry. Well balanced not a fruit bomb. With good acidity and minerality, giving it that dry but not puckering finish.
March 31, 2013 - Didn't make much in the way of mental notes, but I did enjoy the wine and would definitely purchase again. It was off-dry on entry but the sweetness disappeared almost immediately. Soft mouthfeel, and while there was enough acid to complement the fruit, I didn't find it to be particularly bracing.
February 1, 2013 - Opened this up with friends who are not "white" drinkers. They didn't know white is more than Chardonnay!

January 22, 2013 - damn tasty
September 7, 2012 - Dry, some notes of citrus, hint of the green. Complex well done.
June 4, 2012 - I say 87, wife says 90. This was definitely my favorite SB so far. Nice crisp citrus taste and a nice balance of minerality, but not too much. Not grassy and no off flavors which I generally dislike in SB (which Peter Wellington told me may be sulfur and/or cat pee aromas, go figure).
April 4, 2012 - Decent. Mineral taste. Fruity. More interesting than I expected. I don't know that I would buy it again, but certainly worth a try.
