Never had a poor bottle. At the price, possibly the best SB out there. Although I understand that the winemaker is a “character.” Got these cheap, so I bought them, but otherwise, I drink other SB’s. These wines have longevity - this is as fresh and vibrant as a spring daisy 🌼

This was clean, polished and totally exemplified the varietal. Very energetic palate, with pineapple and lychee fruits. Such urgency here. Rather expensive for an SB, but well worth the experience.

Great SB which isn’t too expensive.
Happy 4th, peeps. Although as an Englishman I choke when I say that. Nothing here that’s happy for us 🥲

I liked this vintage better than the 16 & 17. But these are overpriced, so many choices at 1/2 the 💵 💰 that are equally as good or better

Pineapple, guava, white peach on the nose and palate. Perfect balance between sweetness and vibrant acidity. First time I detect some nougatine on the mid palate. Such an exotic expression of SB - untouchable.

Such a go-to for us, regardless of the season. Displays bright notes of lemon sherbet on the nose and palate. Deftly balanced, with bright acidity, which helps to accelerate and amplify the finish. Should be a case buy direct from the winery.
