A bone-dry Sauvignon Blanc that’s high in acidity, with a racy mouthfeel. It has lemongrass and gooseberry flavors, and a touch of that green, feline note that you may not like.——S.H.(11/1/2010)—— 85

This brilliant Sauvignon Blanc should be scooped up by sommeliers. It’s exceptionally dry and tart in citrusy acids, with a mineral scour that’s perfect for shellfish or savory appetizers. The flavors are of lemons, limes, gooseberries and white pepper. Beautiful and compelling. ——S.H.(12/1/2009)—— 91

With a touch of aggressive green grass and gooseberry, this has richer notes of sweet pink grapefruit, melons, black pepper and figs. Yet it remains bone dry, with a crisp spine of acidity. A good buy in a Napa wine of this quality.——S.H.(6/1/2008)—— 87

A fresh green, grassy, jalapeno style, with bracing acidity, lime juice and an earthy streak. Drink now. 378 cases made. -MW

I might have thought there was oak on this wine, it’s so rich and vanilla-smoky, but there isn’t. Just goes to show. It’s dramatic in rich peach, fig, date and ripe green melon, but where does all that butterscotch and creme brulee come from? The grapes come from a single Beckstoffer-owned vineyard in Rutherford.——S.H.(12/15/2007)—— 90
