Fragrant nose of passion fruit, underripe star fruits, apricot, honey, and hint of white floral. Good match between sweetness and refreshing acidity. Light ginger spice adds to the lingering finish.
Lovely!

Late Harvest Rutherford Sauvignon Blanc 2018

Gorgeous gold in color with flashes of sunniness. Fantastic scents of lemon, cream and vanilla with flavors of vanilla, sugar cookie, honey, and an acidic hint of lemon. Balanced excellently. Drank this over many nights with many people. Universally enjoyed. — 5 months ago

Single Vineyard Late Bottled Vintage Unfiltered Porto 2011

Rich aromas of caramel and raisins, light on the palate but round, with raisins and figs and the perfect level of sweetness. From our trip to Portugal at the end of 2018. — 2 months ago

Vintage Brut Late Disgorged Sparkling Blend 1999

I cannot believe how good this wine is! It tastes so fresh, but there are oxidized characteristics as it opens. Marzipan, honey, pears, baked apples, jasmine. There’s also some nutmeg and red apple. The palate explodes with flavor at the end. Dried apricots, a ton of apple, dark honey, tart lemon juice, almonds, some bread. I am so impressed! Given as a gift and I honestly thought 25 year old j vineyards would have turned. Boy was I wrong. Maybe wine of the year for me. — 3 months ago
