January 20, 2015 - Thanksgiving 2014: A bit too grassy for my tastes and its seashell, salty finish was also not my thing. Good body and brightness – pink grapefruit, chalk and dried pineapple character profile.

September 7, 2013 - The Grapes of Bordeaux (Bin 75): Similar notes as before; chives on the herbaceous nose; mellow SB with good cut and minerality; classic Bordeaux Blanc.

August 16, 2013 - A pleasure to drink 2 whites back to back that are so true to where they are from. If you want to know what white Bordeaux tastes like and don't want to spend a bunch, try this. The nose is distinctly Sauvignon Blanc with the gooseberry, slightly grassy chive with a grilled lemon note in the background; the palate is taut with richness and great acid, balance, lemon, distinct minerality from the gravel, and finishes with a slight waxy Semillon note(actually no Semillon- 100% Sauvignon with 25% new oak and lee stirring); texture, flavor, and balance is right on. 90+
