August 19, 2016 - Medium lemon color. Nose of tangerine, chalk, wet stone and a hint of herbs. Flavors of citrus, slate/stone and tart apple with a strong underlying mineral note. The acidity on this wine is intense. Almost too much on its own but with food, it is perfect. Really fantastic wine.

April 16, 2016 - A bit of fruit has faded, so now heading a bit more towards rustic profile; still nice acid, good chalk. Very refreshing, but hardly what one would think when contemplating "California Sauvignon Blanc".

January 9, 2016 - Still every bit as luscious and chalky as before. There we go. Every bottle makes me glad to be on this list.

December 7, 2015 - The best SB coming out of Napa for under $50 (and this is closer to $30!). Pale white in color; light in body; nose of grapefruit and flint. Tastes of grapefruit, slate, and wet grass. 13.9% alcohol. Intense but energetic, this is more than a tremendous value; it is a fantastic wine - far better than the Spottswoode and Mondavi To Kalon, in my opinion.
