The 2018 Excelsior Sauvignon Blanc has an attractive white peach and yellow plum bouquet that is nicely defined. The palate is fresh and vibrant on the entry with a fine touch of salinity, and brisk and vivacious toward the finish. Delicious. (Neal Martin, Vinous, August 2018)

High acidity, bright with lime citrus and gooseberry, with a touch of herbs and passion fruit.

Nice, stone, mineral & a citrus bite: pairing with Thanksgiving leftovers success! Mild acidity which blends well with a touch of vanilla finish - perfect!

Less full bodied than Kim Crawford, but a nice flavor. Good for a casual summer afternoon or evening
