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.

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.

Dark ruby in color with a purplish rim.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Fruit forward on the nose with light cedar and lots of chocolate and tobacco notes.
Dry on the palate, and complex right out of the bottle.
Showing blackberries, cooked plums, figs, tobacco, chocolates, coffee, peppercorn, cedar, vanilla, licorice, mediterranean spices and peppercorn.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This 9 year old is showing beautifully now. Complex and interesting. Rich and engaging.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 45 minutes of airtime. Tannins calm down after an hour.
This 2015 was a great vintage and it is showing. Peaking now, and will continue to drink nicely in the next 5 years.
Nicely balanced with a soft mouthfeel. Spicy and engaging. I had it 4 years ago and it is drinking better now.
A great sipping wine to have all by itself, but will also pair nicely with a big piece of steak.
