Pale gold. Fairly thick legs-wow! Good old-fashioned California Ssauvignon Blanc. Grassy/herbal/lemony component but not overdone. Nice melon fruit in the nose. Not overly acidic, even somewhat creamy. Good, and very nice at the price. Amazingly fresh at 3 years of age. 4-12-16-8: 90/100.

Pretty much agree with twb311. Was going to a BYOB seafood restaurant and needed something that would please and accompany everything. This filled the bill.

This is a solid sauv blanc. It's not over the top crisp but its not dull either. This would be a go to bottle if I knew I needed something to please everyone. But it's not perfect because it didn't leave me saying wow.

Having tried a few bottles of this since mid 2012, I have to say I am slightly disappointed. It really is kind of bland. We are not expecting miracles, but these guys have all the ability to bring us a memorable wine. Instead of feeling fruit, I feel manipulation, maybe even some pretty heavy filtration. Just not enough "there" there. Not a disaster. I don't think it is storage problem. Will try more again.

More delicious than the score implies, paired marvelously with a linguini with citris cream sauce
Lyche and lemon through midpalate, great acidity, lemon zest on the finish
