Pale lemon in color with a yellow tint.
Nice nose of lemons, citrus, light wood, light vanilla, yellow apples, spices, light tropical fruits and bananas.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with lemons, citrus, green apples, light grapefruits, limes, light wood, earth, vanilla, spices and white pepper.

This is great Sauvignon Blanc from Rutherford in Napa Valley. Nicely balanced and spicy, with a great mouthfeel.
Showing nice complexity with a little bit of oak and vanilla notes, but not overwhelming at all.
Alcohol is well-balanced as well, although high, so watch out.
Good by itself or with food. I paired it with fresh oysters. Delicious.
Aged for 8 months in 20% New French oak barrels. A small production of only 50 cases.
14.2% alcohol by volume.
92 points.

This is a great Cabernet Sauvignon based blend from Napa Valley. Showing nice complexity with a great mouthfeel.
Good by itself or with food. Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up ( 30 minutes).
Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, but already delicious. I would love to revisit this in 5 years.
A great sipping wine to have all by itself. Tasty, tangy and delicious. powerful, yet elegant.
