This wine was clear, deep intensity and medium ruby color. The nose was clean with medium intensity aromas. Blackberry, strawberry, vanilla and spice. This is a dry wine, medium acidity, medium tannin, medium body and medium finish. This is an outstanding wine that pairs well with my studying today!

Well balanced with creamy texture. On the nose I get green apple, pear and a hint of vanilla. Finish fades quickly. All in all a good Cali sav blanc. Enjoyable.

Used our Coravin to pull a couple of glasses out of this bottle. First tried this wine at silveroak. Tannins have softened some since then but they still provide some grip. I think this still has some time left and will continue to develop in the next 5 years. As with any wine, this one was made better by enjoying it with my wonderful wife.
