  March 18, 2009 - NYC Third Wed - 2001 Rioja Dinner (Il Corso, NYC): Flat nose that gave nothing away. Slightly musty, but not corked. Really nice flowers and fruit in the mouth. I liked this.

  April 27, 2008 - This is my first Sholium Project wine and wow. Huge nose with layers of minerality and a trace of sweetness. Immediately I think of Baumard Savennieres minus the sweetness. This is got be one of the best Sauvignon Blancs I've had from California, although for me its much closer to a Chenin Blanc in profile. The richness in this wine leads me to believe that it may age well. In any event, a truly unique wine.

  September 5, 2007 - on the buttery side of a sauvignon blanc...admittedly better when chilled below the 55 degrees that it is stored at (although it was pretty hot today, so that might be a mitigating factor)
