This wine screams where it’s from. Pale lemon with green reflexes, the nose reveals intense aromas of elderflower, asparagus, green bell pepper, gooseberry, ripe peach and melon, followed by a medium body with a pungent acidity, defining the wines distinctive freshness. Drink now until 2024. — 2 years ago
Finesse. Maybe too long of a decant at 4 hours. Subtle black fruits, little clove, really mellow and good. Great with risotto and focaccia. 5 more bottles to experiment with. — 4 years ago
Very smooth cab. Dark fruit nose but subtle mouth. Great with steak and risotto. Drank for celebrating student loan pay off and the 1st female Vice President! — 4 years ago
Green apples with a squeeze of lemon. Asparagus with a mineral base. Very crisp with lingering acidity. Not usually a Chablis drinker but this bottle was spot on. Late in its vintage but the wine held up very well — 2 years ago
Peaches and lemon with good acidity. Paired well with seafood risotto improving during the meal. — 3 years ago
Kevin Judd handeling the Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc in his own way by natural fermentation on oak.
Pale to straw yellow.
Still fruity (pear and grapefruit) & herbal (asparagus and grass), but with added minerality (a hint of flint), butteryness and some earthyness that makes this SB surpass a regular Marlborough Sauvignon.
Medium to high acidity. Medium to long aftertaste. — 4 years ago

Well developed and plateauing now. Lacks fruit density to carry tertiary development. Great match with veal cheeks, wild mushrooms and risotto. — 2 months ago
