14.4% abv. Recent auction purchase. Luxurious Napa Sauvignon Blanc, with beautiful aromatics, mouth-filling ripe fruit, expensive oak, abundant acidity, complexity, and impressive length. Lemon curd, ripe apple, lots of other flavors going on here. Bears no resemblance to anything I've ever had in a New Zealand Sauv Blanc. Beautiful, well-made white. I don't drink many wines like this, so I won't give a score -- I'll just say that my wife and I enjoyed this very much with dinner and as a cocktail. A real treat!

This may be the best white we’ve ever had. Has some body but crisp. Some oakiness like a chardonnay
