Lake County, North Coast, California, USA
Flinty and very dry. Nice, pure and more rustic expression of the varietal.

Very drinkable Cali sauv blanc that grows on you with time in the glass. Had at virtual tasting with Bodkin’s Chris Christensen and he told the story of how the fruit that went into this wine wasn’t from his main vineyard in Lake County (too much smoke damage in 20) but a blend of fruit contributed by good friends of his at 3 Sonoma wineries that had better luck that year —talk about a wine being the story of a vintage! A softer, rounder Sauv B that’s light on the grassy/grapefruit/quince notes, with more lemon, stone and tropical fruit. Great story teller and great winemaker!

Nice plumpness here, with smooth pear flavored and a subtle richness, right in balance. Enjoyed this wine a lot !

Rounded, easy, not overly Kiwi driven - almost a steel aged Chardonnay element to it - and great with SUPER spicy Thai food believe it or not. Actually, it was Laotian, but I'm nit picking cuisines.
