The 2018 Sauvignon Blanc Hopkins Ranch is bright and focused, and yet also has terrific textural richness that keeps it from being aggressive. This is a fabulous, super-expressive, affordable Sauvignon Blanc from Peay's Cep label. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2019)

green apple, lime, sweet floral notes, without the grassy notes if NZ Sauv Blanc; very crisp, refreshing, and crushable at only 12.6% ABV, great acidity; bottled under screw cap, great picnic wine from Peay’s sister label

Light and minerally. Good cool climate SB. A little pricey for the style, but a nice expression.

Lots of lime and green apple on this one. A little tart on the finish. Might settle down with some spicy food.
