    January 28, 2017 - Vibrant straw yellow. Lemon and grapefruit nose. Medium bodied, lemon rind, decent acid, almond, and a tangy medium to long finish. Not showing its age at all.

    March 12, 2015 - Hanging in strong. I'd drink this sooner than later. Very good aged sauvignon blanc

    August 3, 2014 - At last, some Bordeaux style Sauvignon Blanc. I tend to agree with Bill Eyer, of Cuvee Corner, who said in a recent interview on Snooth: most new world Sauvignon Blanc has “too much over the top freshly cut grass [and is] overly citrus-y…”The ’09 nose requires a bit of patience–it does not leap out–eventually some lemon curd and minerality poke through. On the palate the acidity is subtle and in line with the fruit. This wine is doing fine and has some time to go. Very Good. thedrunkencyclist.com

    April 24, 2014 - Blind California Whites (My Place - Washington, DC): Clean lemon color. Green melon, lime and sea breeze on the nose, a bit of white pepper and floral notes. Crisp and tangy throughout, I get themes of lime, honeydew melon, white peach, but also underlying spice and sea brine notes, which I like. A lot of depth to this wine, equal parts creamy fruit and live-wire acid and minerals. Complex, and very delicious, begging for oysters, salads, goat cheese. I was surprised to see it’s a 2009 because, if anything, I thought this could stand a year or two. Impressive stuff, that’s for sure.

    June 28, 2012 - San Diego WineSpectator.com Offline, 6/28/2012 (Casa Racer117): 13.9% alcohol. Very light clear straw color. Notes of unripe green kiwi, white grapefruit, herbs, lemongrass, smoke, oak. Outstanding. THIRD PLACE tonight.
