June 30, 2012 - Affordable California SB lets me down over and over and over again...
But Beautiful Wife calls it "fine" (and finishes the bottle for me) so maybe it's a question of style. -

May 12, 2012 - For the price, this was an appealing wine. While more in a Chardonnay style, with a buttery/waxy texture, this had balance and purity, without undue oaky notes. Needs rich seafood. Needs a bit more acidic cut as well.

April 25, 2012 - Popped & poured. Pineapple & slightly floral nose. Medium palate. Grapefruit & somewhat sweet note towards the finish which is lengthy. Agree with the Viognier comments. Slightly sweet but in a good way. Close to my style of SB vs. The grassy style.

April 15, 2012 - Really nice. More of the tropical/grapefruit style than the grassy/minerally style, but still very balanced and dry. A real bargain for the price.
