The future of Finger Lakes Sauvingnon Blanc is bright, at least in the hands of Steve Shaw. Fragrant with sweet, ripe gooseberries, apples and a touch of herbs and grass, this is a delicious choice for any occasion. Full bodied and complex, its palate is lush with quince and green plums, highlighted by a refreshing minerality and a lime zest astringency. ——A.I.(4/1/2011)—— 89

A snappy nose of grass, grapefruit and graphite leads on this fun wine from Shaw. On the palate, lemon, citrus and spice follows. Solid and food-friendly, with a lingering, racy finish.——S.K.(4/1/2009)—— 85
