Very well done. Has a sense of place, as opposed to many of the cab clones hailing from Napa today. — a month ago

I’m 92-93 here. I think there is a chance this improves slightly over the next 12-18 months before staying at peak and then trending down.

I don’t drink much SauvBlanc (I’d rather just have bubbles) but this SB is like the Goldilocks of Cali SauvBlanc…it’s not the rich, Bordeaux Blanc style (Melka, V29, Lail Georgia, etc) but it’s also not the boring, forgetful SauvBlanc so many wineries create just because. It has Bordeaux Blanc qualities but with a bright twist…there’s grapefruit, tangerine and white peach aromatically, but even while there’s just a kiss of oak on the palate to round it out, it’s nestled between sea spray, lemon and limestone. Almost tart, but pulls back thanks to the oak. Wonderful QPR here — 9 months ago

Half the price of La Pelle with the same amount of palate traction. We absolutely love this wine. — 10 months ago

Not a traditional cab but super fun. High minerality, dry. But dark fruit — 3 months ago

So good and a perfect Thanksgiving wine. Cranberry and cherry for days! Balanced with some herbs and stone. So much like cru Beaujolais. This has good acidity to cut through the fat! Bring it on! Bottle 1519 of 1654. — 5 months ago

In my opinion, there’s much “churn” in the Napa cab market right now, but La Pelle better understand how the high-end side of the market operates. It starts with a well-appointed winemaker - which is never outdated. This wine is stacked and jacked. Texture, and tension form the primary descriptors. Sandalwood is evident on the nose and palate. Mature cherries, oranges and bright acidity bring home what is an outstanding presentation. — 10 months ago

Clean and straightforward Juhfark, with good minerality and a stark finish. A nice neutral wine for when the food rather than the wine needs to stand out. Good with Wiener Schnitzel. — a year ago
