July 14, 2019 - Drinking beautifully right now. Lovely balance of the vibrancy and lift of the sauvignon fruit and the richness, texture, and weight of the Semillon. Ridiculously good for its price.

December 16, 2015 - Sadly, my last one. This wine has delivered in every vintage I've tried. Pretty consistent impression here as my last note in '13. Light golden color. Pretty nose of raw honey, white flowers, pear, grapefruit, pineapple, and a nice, piney, herbal note. Fantastic nose. Medium body and length, and medium+ acid, with flavors of citrus, pear, light tropical fruits, mineral, and a honeyed note. Creamy mouthfeel, and a lingering mineral and acid component to this wine that I enjoy. Very nice. Pair with salads with vinaigrette, chicken piccata, seafood, and the like. Worked well with pea and prosciutto risotto tonight.

November 16, 2015 - Bordeaux (Portobellos): Smells nice. Crystalline, candied lemon with slight tropical shadings initially. With air and at warmer temperature it turns much more tropical in tone. Good acid with a hint of sweetness. This was a bit different but I liked it.

October 24, 2015 - Very herbal with some nice oak punctuating the zippy fruit. Ends refreshingly mineral and quite long. A bit rustic. Expected more semilion in this.
