A tasty Sauvignon Blanc, with crisply acidic grapefruit, pineapple and lime juice flavors, touched with oak. A nice appetizer sipper, with some complexity. Good with asparagus risotto, bruschetta with goat cheese, a nice roast chicken with sauteed new potatoes and rosemary.——S.H.(11/1/2010)—— 88

Rich and savory, this white wine is very fruity, almost candied in lemondrop, pineapple, honeysuckle and vanilla flavors. Yet it’s crisp and dry, like a Sauvignon Blanc should be. The finish is brisk and spicy.——S.H.(12/31/2009)—— 89

A fantastic Sauvignon Blanc. Tastes as fresh and vibrant as a young wine can, with exuberant flavors of pineapples, green apples, cloves, vanilla and cinnamon that are wrapped into a rich, creamy texture. Crisp acidity makes the wine brilliantly clean. With the exception of the ’04, an off-vintage, this bottling has been wonderfully consistent.——S.H.(10/1/2008)—— 90
